Samaritan's Purse International Operation Christmas Child -
Christmas Shoebox Appeal 2011
(Oct - Dec 2011)
Operation Christmas Child is the worlds largest, annual children's Christmas project, enabling individuals and groups to fill ordinary shoe-boxes with gifts for needy children. Since 1990 the project has sent out Christmas Shoeboxes to over 80 million children throughout the world. Each shoe-box will be hand-delivered to a needy child, asking nothing from them in return- all boxes are given to children regardless of nationality, political background or religious beliefs.
