Operation Christmas Child sets up Somerset area drop-off locations

Volunteers around Somerset County are preparing to collect Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts during National Collection Week, Nov. 16–23. Since 1993, Operation Christmas Child has partnered with local churches across the globe to collect and deliver gift-filled shoeboxes to children in need including many who are suffering from war, poverty, disease and disaster. OCC collected and delivered more than 244 million gift-filled shoeboxes to children in more than 175 countries and territories in that time. OCC hopes to reach 12.8 million children in 2026. Operation Christmas Child is a project of Samaritan’s Purse that collects shoeboxes filled with fun toys, school supplies, and personal care items, and delivers them to children in need around the world to demonstrate God’s love tangibly, said Mindy Singo, local area coordinator who leads the Operation Christmas Child project across Somerset County, in an email.
