These toys & treats will be packed by our students to prepare the Boxes of Joy for Cross Catholic in time for Christmas. Boxes of Joy are Christmas gift boxes prepared for needy children in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Guatemala. Anything sent is greatly appreciated! God bless you! Learn more about Boxes of Joy here.
Perhaps you’d like to help her out. It’s simple and not expensive. Just follow the link.
