Volunteer at
a Processing Center
Volunteer sign-ups for the Operation Christmas Child processing center will open on October 7th. Thank you for your interest in volunteering with Operation Christmas Child!
Before the millions of shoebox gifts collected each year can bring hope and joy to children around the world, each one has to be carefully inspected and made ready for international shipment by volunteers like you. Tens of thousands of volunteers serve annually at shoebox processing centers across Canada and the United States after National Collection Week (the third week of November) and into December. Whether you’re interested in serving as an individual or with a group, sign up now to have a direct part in blessing children overseas with the Gospel of Jesus Christ!

Tours are available where families or groups with children younger than 14 can learn more about the project. These tours help people learn about the journey of a shoebox, what we do at the processing center, and how they can pray for children receiving boxes.
