Operation Christmas Child<br />
Many thanks<br />
to everyone<br />
who helped<br />
with Operation<br />
Christmas Child<br />
this year. Whether you<br />
donated completed boxes,<br />
gave items to ‘top up’ lighter<br />
boxes, helped to check<br />
boxes or contributed in any<br />
way your efforts really do<br />
make a difference.<br />
The total number of<br />
boxes through the Sheffi eld<br />
warehouse this year was<br />
17,170 which includes boxes<br />
checked at Rotherham,<br />
Barnsley and Greenmoor.<br />
We dispatched 7,398<br />
shoeboxes to Swaziland,<br />
2,280 to Romania and<br />
7,492 to Latvia. It is<br />
great that we are able<br />
to bring a little joy to<br />
so many children.<br />
In total around<br />
875,000 shoeboxes<br />
have been sent<br />
from the UK to many<br />
countries.<br />
