I just think it's such a great idea.

We did that at shcool every year... everyone sent one... and we also did it for the local homeless men and womens shelters. Some class' would do OCC, some would do homeless women and some homeless men.
I really enjoy it! we put chocolate and a x-mas card with everything too!

Carly, that's cool you guys did it in school.
You're not allowed putting chocolate in these though as it'll melt!!

I know we sent it to the Tsunami victims last year...we will probably do it again too.

HaHaHa... I guess so!! I never was in a class that got to do OCC... jut homeless men or women

My parents and I are doing this this year. Its so simple and its not expensive and I can only imagine how excited the kids get when they receive their shoeboxes
