Operation Christmas Child What It Means and How We Support It
Operation Christmas Child is a project that gives gift filled shoeboxes to children who do not have much. These gifts can be toys, school supplies, or little things that make a child happy. Sometimes, the shoebox a child receives is the only gift they get for Christmas.
At Curry’s Collision, we have been helping with this project for more than ten years. Our employees, families and even our customers join together to pack and donate shoeboxes. We love seeing the joy these gifts bring to kids around the world.
What Is Operation Christmas Child?
Operation Christmas Child is run by Samaritan’s Purse, an organization that helps people in need. They collect shoeboxes filled with gifts and send them to children in different countries. Many of these children live in poverty or in places affected by war or disasters.
Every box is special. It is more than just a present. It shows a child that someone cares about them. The boxes also come with a story about hope and kindness.
How Curry’s Collision Participates
Operation Christmas Child is near and dear to our company and family. We have supported this project for more than ten years, donating our time and money to make sure children around the world wake up on Christmas morning with a gift.
We also pack hundreds of shoeboxes every year. These boxes include things like crayons, toothbrushes, toothpaste, small toys and books. Our team and our customers love helping.
Some years, our community helps us pack over 25 boxes! Seeing everyone come together to help children is one of the best parts of the project.
Why This Project Is Important
Helping with Operation Christmas Child makes children feel happy and cared for. It also teaches our team and our customers about kindness and sharing. Even a small gift can make a huge difference in a child’s life.
When you visit Curry’s Collision for repairs, you are also supporting a company that cares about the community and helps children.
