Every Child Deserves a Christmas Gift
Box of Joy ® gifts are Christmas gifts sent to children
in developing countries like Haiti, Malawi, and the Dominican Republic.
Filled with toys, clothing, school supplies, a rosary
and The Story of Jesus, these gifts represent Christ’s love.
Your donation will demonstrate Christ’s compassion to a child
who may have never before received a Christmas gift.
