This November Reclaimed volunteers lovingly selected gifts and packed them into 210 shoe boxes which were then shipped to economically disadvantaged children in Togo Africa as part of Operation Christmas Child.

Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse, an international relief organization. Their mission is to provide local partners around the world with shoeboxes filled with small toys, hygiene items, and school supplies as a means of reaching out to children in their own communities with the Good News of Jesus Christ. They ship these simple gifts outside the United States to children affected by war, poverty, natural disaster, famine, and disease; and to children living on Native American reservations in the U.S.
