This week, Nov. 17 though Nov. 24, is the National Collection Week for Operation Christmas Child,

 

Make a difference in a child's life. Join thousands of volunteers across Iowa in packing shoe boxes with gifts for needy children overseas suffering from war, poverty, and disease, and bring to one of the many drop-off sites in the area during collection week. It might be the only gift these children have ever received.

 

In Decorah, boxes may be dropped off at Rejuvenation Studio, 211 1/2 E Water Street. Phone: (800) 501-2573
