Homeless Shelter filling shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child

By
Greg Hawkins-
The Highland County Homeless Shelter clients have selected Operation Christmas Child for a second year in a row as part of the shelter’s way of giving back to those in need.

The project was a success last year, as the Homeless Shelter had a goal of 50 shoeboxes and ended up packing over 100 boxes. This year, we have once again started the project with 50 boxes but will not limit the project to that total.

No funding from the shelter is used for this project. This project is made possible through the kind donations of Amatha Farrens, State Farm Insurance; Hillsboro Family Dentistry; Dr. Antone Hall, DDS; and shelter staff.
