Samaritan's Purse is an organization that helps children around the world.

Each Christmas they offer an opportunity to pack a small shoebox with items to be delivered to children around the world. These items arrive around Christmas and bring excitement as well as the good news of Jesus. The gospel is included in each box written in the child's own language.
