OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD
For the month of February, we are collecting larger sized stuffed animals (that can fit inside OCC boxes). Each month we will also be collecting blank, plastic, empty, prescription bottles for making sewing kits. Collection bin is located at The Hub. Monetary donations are accepted at any time to assist in purchasing needed items. All donations for this purpose must have OCC written on the check/envelope.
