Samaritan's Purse shoeboxes are a tangible way to show love and compassion to children around the world. Over the past 25 years, Samaritan's Purse has delivered more than 150 million Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes to children in over 150 countries.
Each shoebox is filled with essential items like hygiene products, school supplies, and toys. But what really makes a shoebox special is the personal touch. When you fill a shoebox, you are sending a message of hope and love to a child who may have never received a gift before.
If you're looking for ideas on how to fill your shoebox, here are a few suggestions:
Hygiene items: Toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, washcloth, comb, brush, deodorant, hand sanitizer
School supplies: Pencils, pens, crayons, markers, paper, notebooks, books, erasers, sharpeners
Toys: Small dolls, action figures, cars, balls, jump ropes, stuffed animals, puzzles, games
Other: Candy, snacks, socks, hats, gloves, scarves, beanies, sunglasses, flashlights, batteries
