Operation Christmas Child National Collection Week

This week, Bethesda
area individuals, families and groups are joining millions of people across the
United States to fill empty shoeboxes with gifts for 9.8 million suffering
children around the world. 

During Operation
Christmas Child’s National Collection Week—Nov. 18–25—five area collection
sites will be bustling with activity as 10,000 colorfully wrapped shoebox
gifts are dropped off by residents. Hundreds of local volunteers will be
working hard to pack and transport the boxes to the next stop on their journey
to a child in need.
