Operation Christmas Child is a program that provides gift-filled shoeboxes to children in need around the world to help them feel loved during the holidays. It allows people to join together as a team or family to pack shoeboxes with toys, school supplies, and hygiene items. A $10,000 prize would help fund approximately 1,500 additional shoeboxes, benefiting more children in areas with need but shortage of funds. The program is run by Samaritan's Purse and brings joy to lonely children through a small act of kindness.

1. I nominate
Operation Christmas Child
• Through Operation Christmas Child we serve
children who need to feel loved
• At this time of year children can feel even
more lonely and unloved
• Getting a “shoebox” full of love lets them
know that somebody, somewhere cares

2. This is a proven way to share what we have
and show Love at the same time

3. Operation Christmas Child
• This is a way for our team to join in a program
each year
• OCC is our “Charity of Choice”
• Physically packing the shoeboxes is great for
families, and
• The option of giving online allows everybody
to be involved

4. What would OCC do with a prize?
• Because much of the material and labor is
donated, a prize of $10,000 will provide
approximately 1,500 additional shoeboxes
• There is never a shortage of children
• Only a shortage of funds
