Operation Christmas Child has been collecting and delivering shoebox gifts — filled with school supplies, hygiene items and fun toys — to children worldwide for more than two decades. This is a project that everyone can be a part of, even with COVID-19 restrictions.

National Collection Week is Nov. 16-23 with two curbside drop-off locations in Clinton County, according to Barbara Lanctot, Area Coordinator for South Central Ohio.
