This is national collection week for the Operation Christmas Child’s shoebox campaign. Thousands of boxes are being collected and sent to children in need around the world including in Ukraine, Central America, Africa and the Philippines. Many of those boxes are filled with personal hygiene items, school supplies and toys. Drop off locations include those in Lethbridge, Taber, Fort Macleod, Claresholm and Medicine Hat. Frank King is the News Media Relations Manager for Samaritan’s Purse Canada and he says there is also still time if you want to pack a box online.
