How it works
Pick up or reserve a shoebox.
Choose the age range and pack quality gifts.
Pray over your box and attach the printed label. Bring your box to church or to our packing party.
Reserve a box
Do you still need a box? We have you covered. Use the form below and we will set one aside for you this Sunday.
What to pack
Packing your shoebox is simple and meaningful. Every item you include can bring joy and show God’s love to a child around the world. Samaritan’s Purse provides an official list to help guide what to include and what to leave out so each box is safe and impactful.

Shipping donation and tracking
Each Operation Christmas Child box requires a small shipping donation that helps cover the cost of sending your gift around the world. When you make your donation online, you can also print a tracking label to follow your box and see which country it reaches. It’s a great way to connect personally with the child who will receive your gift.
