Operation Christmas Child –

We are blessed to have yarn and a variety of material donated to OCC.  We are able to make quite a few of the items (shorts, dresses, headbands, caps) that go into each shoebox.  We do need funding to purchase (bulk) our school supplies, hygiene items.  Based on past years spending, it has been costing us $20 per box (this includes the $9 shipping fee).

There is a variety of ways to support Operation Christmas Child:

*          donate items for the boxes - check out this link for First Immanuel Wish list  https://smile.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1OEV4ZK24L5QY/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_1?_encoding=UTF8&type=wishlist

*          donate funding for items for the boxes

*          donate funding to cover the shipping cost - $9.00 per box
