I love that I can always turn to the Faithful Provisions Facebook Community when I need a little help from my friends! I’ve learned so much from my readers. Recently, I asked for some tips and ideas on filling the shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child (OCC), and wow–I got some really super ideas from you.
Cherise mentioned that she fills her OCC box with the simple things–toothpaste, toothbrush, soap–the items that we take for granted. That puts it into perspective, doesn’t it?
Cindi said that most shoe stores will gladly give you a few shoe boxes FREE–and she tries to remember what things she would have liked at the ages of the kids she is buying for.
Dawn said that flip flops are a great item to include, so she shopped clearance sales to get a few pairs for OCC. I’ll remember that for next year.
You can check out the official list of gift ideas from OCC HERE, and be sure to read all the great ideas from the Faithful Provisions Facebook Community HERE. If you haven’t joined us yet, you’ll find a community of creative, money-saving folks who are always ready to share their great ideas.
Be sure to include your children in this project. I’ve got ideas for great conversation starters HERE.
