Operation Christmas Child is an organization who sends boxes of goods to children in need all over the world. Groups of all sizes collect items from their communities to be put into shoe boxes. Thousands of volunteers serve annually inspecting and preparing shoe boxes for international shipping to 100 different countries.

Delaware 4-H has been collecting items for Operation Christmas Child. Each month, there will be different items for 4-H members to donate. Just bring these items to your monthly club meeting and your leaders will see that the items are received by the county offices.

In late October and early November, Delaware 4-H will pack the donated items into shoeboxes to be donated to Operation Christmas Child.  A field trip to a local packing
facility will also take place in November.  Let’s show the world how much Delaware 4-H cares!
