Operation Christmas Child Funding
Donation protected
With the holiday season just around the corner, the Foley children want to do our part in making sure that children around the world will have a smile on their faces come the holidays.
Operation Christmas Child is the ogranization we will be shopping for with the funds that we raise. Through Operation Christmas Child (OCC), we will fill shoeboxes full of gifts for the children in need. These gifts can include the incredible 'WOW' gifts such as legos, sports balls, Barbie Dolls, arts and crafts sets, etc, and include all sorts of other gifts such as school supplies, clothing, jewelry and soe sorts of food.
We already have done some shopping and it is so extremely gratifying knowing that we can ALL make a difference TOGETHER! The more money that is raised, the more we will shop because the more the shoeboxes we will need to fill with some Christmas magic! That sounds like a good problem to have.
If you'd like to check out OCC for more info, here is their site: https://www.samaritanspurse.org/what-we-do/operation-christmas-child/?utm_source=OCC-Redirect&utm_medium=direct&utm_content=OCC-Redirect
If you would like to donate in ways other than GoFundMe, there is Venmo (@deweyfoley) as well as PayPal ([email redacted]).
The great part is you can send us a photo of you and/or a note along with your donation so that the shoeboxes we fill with your donation are YOURS, while we were just the liason making this process happen. We will also send you the tracking number to the shoeboxes so this way you can track your donation!
Please note that not only are 100% of your donations going towards the shopping of the shoe boxes, but they will also go to paying for the shipping of each box ($7 per box). Please remember these boxes could literally be sent around the entire world. The last date that OCC accepts dropoffs for shoe boxes is 11/21 so our hope is any and all donations are made by 11/20 so the shoe boxes are ready to be sent on 11/21.
We cannot stress how grateful and thankful we are for the donations! We cannot wait to go shopping, fill and wrap up the boxes, and know that come the holidays next month, there will be memories being made which will last a lifetime because of this experience. Everyone deserves to have a great holiday heading into the new year, so we are so happy we can do our parts together!
If there are any questions, the best contact would be Dewey at [email redacted] or get in contact with him or Noelle on Twitter: @deweyhaveto and @noellefoley
