Battlefords area group in Calgary to help with Operation Christmas Child
A toy or two, a toothbrush, a T-shirt.
The shoeboxes may contain small gifts many Canadian kids would consider basics, but for children in underdeveloped and war-ravaged countries receiving them could mean a world of difference.
That’s why North Battleford resident Mona Bruynooghe supports the Operation Christmas Child Project.
She joined a group of Battlefords area residents who traveled to Calgary this past week where they spent four days checking gift-filled shoeboxes that will be sent to needy kids in Central America and West Africa for Operation Christmas Child’s next delivery.
