Samaritan's Purse will be collecting shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child Nov. 15-22.

It is a tradition for many families....buying items and filling up a shoebox for Operation Christmas Child.

Samaritan's Purse then partners with believers across the world to distribute the boxes and the gospel message to children in some of the hardest-to-reach places.

Collection of the boxes will take place November 15 -22.

Another option is to give money to have online boxes prepared.

Samaritan's Purse is an evangelical Christian humanitarian aid organization that provides aid to people in physical need as a key part of its Christian missionary work.

There is more information about how to pack a box and where to drop it off on the Samaritan's Purse website.
