• Fill a shoebox with health items, toys, clothing, school supplies, or whatever you believe would enhance a child's Christmas (see specific suggestions below).
• Donate items to fill a box (collection boxes are in dorms and the Campus Center)
• Each box should be wrapped with the lid so it can be taken off the box.
• A personal note adds a unique ouch to the box. Sometimes the child will even write back!
• Don't forget that the boxes are going to be officially collected and assembled on November 13th at 9 p.m. in Northlawn.
