Operation christmas child
A project of Samaritan's Purse that has delivered millions of gift-filled shoeboxes to boys and girls around the world.
This was the original impetus for the creation of this foundation.
Back when we managed Taylor Technologies we learned about Samaritan's Purse and how they collected shoebox gifts to send to kids around the world. Our production manager, Jeff Mauler, looked at our assembly lines for building water test kits and realized that with a little tweaking he could just as easily pack shoebox gifts!

Making a difference
Since 2001 we've been doing this every year— And in that time we've packed over a quarter million gifts sent to less fortunate kids around the world, bringing smiles and the gospel wherever they were sent.
With our background in manufacturing coupled with the purchasing efficiencies of these larger volumes we've calculated that our teams can assemble a gift at a fraction of what it would cost an individual to pack the same box.
By partnering with us you can multiply your giving by close to 10'xs!
WE'VE COME TO BELIEVE THIS IS A “THREE-FER” MINISTRY
-
1.
It blesses those that join with us to give.
-
2.
It blesses those that come to our packing parties to assemble these gifts.
-
3.
It blesses kids around the world when the gifts are delivered.
