How to Pack a Shoebox

1

Pick up a shoebox at The Gathering.

2

Girl or Boy?
Decide whether you will pack a box for a girl or a boy, and the age category: 2–4, 5–9, or 10–14.

3

Fill with Gifts
Select a medium to large “wow” item such as a soccer ball with pump or stuffed animal, then fill with other fun toys, hygiene items, and school supplies.
Start with a quality “wow” item such as a stuffed animal, soccer ball with pump, or clothing outfit that will capture the child’s attention the instant he or she opens the box.

4

Pray
Most importantly, pray for the child who will receive your gift. You can also include a personal note and photo.

5

Follow Your Box Labels
Donate $9 online and receive a label to Follow Your Box and discover the destination of your shoebox gift.
If you prefer to download and print basic labels, remember to include your $9 donation per shoebox.

Drop-off
Take your shoebox gift to The Gathering no later than Sunday November 24th.
