Three Kings Day – Shoe Box Gift Drive – January 2023 – Arrived!
The boxes were received before Christmas Day in late December and after a thankfully brief delay in customs, they were transported to Amina, Mao, Esperanza, Cruce de Guayacanes, David, and El Puente. All the children received their boxes by Jan 6th.
We want to express our gratitude to so many of you that take the time to support this valuable and inspiring mission for the kids in the DR.

NEWS: Three Kings Day – Shoe Box Gift Drive – 2022 – On their Way!
Greetings. We did it!! With the help of many with a wonderful heart of love and giving, we shipped 488 shoe boxes on November 14th 2022. About 60 people gathered at Culture Church in Williamstown, NJ, to decorate, fill, package and prepare 40 large boxes. These boxes not only contained the gift shoe boxes but all clothing and food for the children and families in te towns of Esperanza, Mao, David, El Puente and Cruce de Guayacanes in the Dominican Republic.
We are overjoyed that these boxes were picked up by our friend Alfonso from Mi Tierra Dominicana shipping in Camden, and they are on their way by ship to the island. Our fervant prayer is that these boxes will be received by the last week of December so they can be distributed by the pastors and community leaders in those towns.
We are excited to share photos of the kids opening their shoe boxes in January of 2022.
Each year, we mobilize to prepare shoe boxes filled with clothing, small gifts and snacks for the kids in the Dominican Republic. Due to poverty, these children rarely receive gifts during the Christmas season. Thank your for joining us in this missionary activity as we share God’s Love and kindness during this time.
You can see images of the children receiving and opening their shoe boxes during the past 5 years in the galleries below.
