During the project’s National Collection Week, Nov. 13 ??? 20, South Attleboro residents will transform empty shoeboxes into gifts of hope filled with school supplies, hygiene items and fun toys. Operation Christmas Child will deliver these shoebox gifts to children affected by war, disease, disaster, poverty and famine. This year, the MA Southeast Area Team hopes to contribute more than 10,250 shoebox gifts toward the 2017 global goal of reaching 12 million children. “We are honored to join the nationwide effort to collect gift-filled shoeboxes for children who may have never experienced the true meaning of Christmas,” said Regional Director Cecil Pollydore. “Through these simple gifts and a message of hope, children learn that God loves them and has not forgotten them.???
