We like social responsibility.
We’ve always liked it—even before it became the popular thing to do. That’s why we’re partnering with Operation Christmas Child.
We are offering a unique opportunity to see the fruit of your labor—to go hand deliver shoe boxes to needy children.
The Winner will be chosen based on their compelling story and will be invited on a free international distribution trip with OCC in Spring 2010 (see the official contest rules).
Update: Congratulations to our winner, Paula Swenson. She will join a team from Operation Christmas Child on a trip to Ecuador in early March 2010. As part of that group, Paula will visit communities and churches and deliver shoe box gifts and the Gospel to children in underprivileged areas of Ecuador!
