OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
Children Around the World Need Your Help
Each year we support Operation Christmas Child to provide gift boxes for children all over the world who are living in difficult circumstances. In 2024 everyone generously gave gifts to send over 90 shoeboxes plus £450 carriage donations via Samaritan’s Purse ‘Operation Christmas Child’ to children living in poverty. We held a pop up cafe on the 11th October to raise funds for this year's appeal and will be holding a packing Party on Saturday 8th November. We will also act as a local collection point for other organisations' boxes - details of drop off times are below. The distribution of shoeboxes at the destination is always via a trusted Christian church or charity which is important as some boxes will go to countries that do not have the same social, politcal and religious freedoms that we enjoy. We look kforward to taking part in Operation Christmas Child in 2025 - follow the link at the bottom of this page to look at the Samaritan's Purse website and worldwide details abolut Operation Christmas Child.
