A simple box, overflowing with hope.
Our mission is rooted in spreading hope, joy, and love, ensuring that the most underprivileged, hopeless, innocently hurt children know they are not forgotten. We seek to convey care and material blessings, sharing the light and love of Jesus Christ to those in need.
How It All Started
Our tight-knit group began by assembling shoe boxes more than a decade ago as young teens, packing 8-10 boxes alongside friends and family. From that small start, our passion for delivering hope to orphans and underprivileged children has grown and intensified as we raise our own children. Over the years, we’ve been blessed to share this passion with friends and the community who then helped us grow the number of boxes packed, items collected, and heartfelt hope gifted worldwide.
In 2018, we held our first official packing party in a warehouse with a small group of volunteers. To our amazement, we filled just under 300 boxes. Since then, we’ve packed about 6,250 boxes and have reach that many children as well, positively impacting their lives as they received these boxes. Our annual packing party has since taken off, flourishing into an exciting, “you don’t want to miss” event that unites hundreds of volunteers, families, and children. At the event we pack, pray over, and assemble Boxes of Hope, filled with not only necessities but also joy and love for orphans and children worldwide.
