Giving back with your kids! {Operation Christmas Child}

by doitonadimeblog Filed Under: DIY Projects, Dollar Tree, Holiday

If you are looking for a tangible way to give back this holiday season, one of our favorite charity events is Operation Christmas Child through Samaritan’s Purse.

Samaritan’s Purse is a wonderful non-profit I have enjoyed working with over the years.  Create shoeboxes filled with school supplies, personal hygiene items, and toys to send to a child in need overseas.  The best part of all is this kids will experience God’s love first-hand in a discipleship class and your give will have eternal impact.

See how Carson and I packed boxes this year, and I hope you decide to join us!

**US collection is Nov. 16- Nov. 23 of 2015.  Find your local dropoff!**

Connect to your child by sending information from your kids and family in this free printable!

    We love OCC/Samaritan’s Purse and have been putting together boxes for years Lots of other area churches participate as well. Such an easy way to help children in need. And I love that you can track your boxes to see where they go.

    While I understand that children overseas are in need. I do not understand how so many charities can contribute to overseas children, when there are so many hungry and homeless people and children in the USA.

      I love OCC and will continue to support their ministry. For the reasons you describe we also serve with our church in our community twice a a year. It’s not as much as we used to be able to commit pre-k, but I feel really blessed that we are able to. We also love St. Jude’s, too!! If you have any suggestions you love for serving and supporting the community (or great organizations that do) definitely let me know. I always love hearing about them! xo!
