Project Leader Resources

Project leaders facilitate the packing of Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts for a church or group. That includes you if you’re promoting the project, ordering materials, equipping people with resources, raising funds, organizing a packing party, or initiating other related activities.

We want to equip you with additional resources to help make shoebox packing fun and easy. In addition to the resources below, you can join our exclusive project leader email list to receive special updates.
