operation christmas child: why we give

A reader sent me a the link to this video a few days ago, and I just had to share it.  (Just a word of warning, you may want to have tissues handy before you watch it!)  I have been absolutely amazed by all the feedback so far regarding the Operation Christmas Child boxes.  Your incredible and generous spirits have motivated me, inspired me, and touched me deeply.  So thank you!

If after watching this video, you decide you would like to participate, there is still time!  Boxes are not due one of the many, many nationwide drop-off locations until the week of Nov. 15-22.  For more information on getting involved and how to fill your box, click here.

And if you are planning to participate in Operation Christmas Child or any other charity this holiday season, be sure to leave a comment here, on my original OCC post.  On November 23rd, the day after all the boxes are due, I will be randomly picking three charitable readers to each win a $15 Starbucks Gift Card! (And thank you Courtney for sending me this touching video!)
