In the season of giving, the Highland County Homeless Shelter clients have selected Operation Christmas Child for the fifth year in a row as part of the shelter’s way of giving back to those in need.
Operation Christmas Child allows clients the opportunity to give back during the holiday season. The project continues to be a success as the shelter filled 100 shoeboxes to capacity. The filled boxes were dropped off at the First United Methodist Church to be distributed among children less fortunate.

“On behalf of everyone affiliated with the Highland County Homeless Shelter, we want to express our gratitude to the community for years of invaluable support,” HCHS Executive Director Greg Hawkins said.
