North HS Students Need Donations for Giving Project

North High School’s student-run United Way Club is participating in Operation Christmas Child.

Operation Christmas Child is a charity program sponsored by Samaritan’s Purse.  The program delivers shoeboxes filled with small presents to children in third world countries.  This year the students have set the goal to pack boxes for 120 children, and are asking for help in making this goal possible. They are asking for small toys, school supplies, crafts, hygiene products, clothing, and accessories that can be packed into shoebox sized boxes.

Donations can be made up until Thursday, Nov 19, at North’s main office. When asked why the United Way Club chose this program, one student responded by saying, “at this time of the year, it is important to be thankful for all we have as well as the needs of others, who are less fortunate.”
