November 14, 2006 SC Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement officers have collected 350 shoeboxes from their fellow officers within the department since mid-October as part of Operation Christmas Child. That’s 350 shoeboxes collected from 217 officers around South Carolina. All shoeboxes will be brought to 1000 Assembly Street in front of the
Rembert Dennis Building lobby in Columbia on Nov. 16 at 8:30 a.m. The
shoeboxes will then be taken to a dropoff location in Charlotte and
distributed to children around the United States and the world. Last year, gifts from the U.S. and 10 other countries were hand-delivered to more than 7.6 million children. Operation Christmas Child shoebox gifts transcend all barriers - language, cultural, geographical and political - to give hurtling children joy and hope. Since 1993, 46 million shoebox gifts have been hand delivered to needy children in more than 120 countries on six continents.
