Can I pack my shoebox online?
Yes! If it’s easier for you to pack your shoebox online we encourage you to do so. The Operation Christmas Child website makes is quick, easy and secure so we invite you to explore this option. The cost to build a shoebox online is $25/per box.
To start, just visit the First Baptist Church Peachtree City ‘Build a Shoebox‘ page and click the green “Build a Shoebox Online Now” button. You will have the option to build the box yourself OR have the professions at Samaritan’s Purse build it for you.
If you choose to build the box yourself you will be able to pick the gender and age of the child you would like to pack a box for and choose the various gifts to include. At the end, you will be asked to pay for the items and the cost of shipping ($25).
That’s it!
How are the boxes shipped? Can I track where it goes?
We will ship your boxes for you, but you must return the boxes to the church by our deadline to make shipment. All filled shoeboxes MUST be dropped off at the church no later than Sunday, November 15.
The cost to ship each box is $9. We ask that you please include payment (cash or check made out to ‘Samaritan’s Purse’ with a note in the memo line ‘Operation Christmas Child’) inside each box when you drop them off to church.
If you would like to follow your box and discover its destination you may do so through the Operation Christmas Child website. The cost is $9/box and you MUST print each label and tape it on the outside of each box.
