We are so excited about the opportunities we will have at Winter DIRT Camp to touch lives around the world. You can help share the love by participating in one of the following ways...
1. OPERATION BEANIE BABIES
Students are being asked to collect Beanie Babies and hard candies to be sent to the Middle East. Soldiers give these items to the children they meet as a way of building bridges and winning hearts. Students will also be making cards and pictures, and writing letters to encourage our soldiers.
- You can help by collecting Beanie Babies and hard candies.
- You can help by creating a card or writing a letter to a solider.
As students compete in team challenges they will be awarded coins worth one dollar each. At the end of the week everyone will be given a Christmas catalog with gifts to purchase and send to a needy person or family in a third world country. Gifts such as baby food, livestock, seeds and tools for growing crops, school supplies and much more.
- You can help by making a donation of dollars to give in exchange for the toy coins.
- You can order your own catalog from www.samaritanspurse.org and provide gifts.
We will be making parachutes for the sake of dropping bibles and radios in the war torn jungles of Columbia. Along with the parachutes we need to include $3 each to purchase solar powered radios, Spanish Bibles and other materials to be attached to each parachute.
- You can donate to help purchase the sewing materials needed for the parachutes.
- You can make parachutes in your home and add them to our shipment.
- You can donate the $3 per parachute to purchase the radios, Bibles and tracts.
Merry Christmas!
