Thanks to Horizon Prep’s participation in Operation Christmas Child, 587 children around the world will be getting a Christmas present this year! “This is a schoolwide service project that is a Christmas tradition for many of our families,” says Horizon Prep Interim Vice Principal Holly Morey. “Our students love to pack their shoeboxes with toys and toiletries. Many of them include a personal note and picture.”
Operation Christmas Child is a ministry of Samaritan’s Purse, www.samaritanspurse.org. Since 1993, shoeboxes have been given to approximately 8 million underprivileged children a year in over 130 countries.
