Sports-themed shoeboxes
The 2012 London Olympics is only just around the corner, so we’ve decided to get into the Olympic spirit as part of this year’s Operation Christmas Child campaign. How? Through sports-themed shoeboxes, of course!
As well as giving you the chance to do something a bit different with your shoeboxes, this is also your chance to send a few sporty items out to needy children in our world – children who might otherwise not have the chance to experience the joy of sport for themselves.

Find out where your shoebox was sent
Imagine the wonder of finding out where your shoebox went! This year, if you make your £2.50 shoebox donation online, we are giving you the opportunity to do just that.
Once you’ve completed your online donation, simply print out the barcode we provide and place it inside your shoebox. Once we’ve processed your shoebox and confirmed its destination country, we will let you know by email.
