Box of Joy is an annual Christmas gift ministry organized by local Catholic schools, parishes and groups across the United States and facilitated by Cross Catholic Outreach. By packing Boxes of Joy with toys and other gifts, participants bless children suffering from extreme poverty by sharing the joy of Christmas and planting seeds of hope. During the months of November and December, all of the Boxes of Joy that have been packed around the nation are sent to The National Screening Center in Miami. At the Screening Center - volunteers screen the boxes to make sure all gifts are safe and appropriate for kids, prepare them for shipping to the destination country and have lots of fun.
This is our MAIN volunteer event, where hundreds of Team Joy members impact the lives of the thousands of poor children who will receive the gifts. Share this Invite

We mobilize the global Church to transform the poor and their communities materially and spiritually for the glory of Jesus Christ. Box of Joy is a ministry of Cross Catholic Outreach.
Description
Box of Joy provides schools, parishes, organizations, and families with an inspiring opportunity to send gifts to Haiti, Guatemala and other developing countries.
A Box of Joy is a Christmas shoebox that is donated and packed with toys, clothing, school supplies and other essential items by U.S. parishes, schools and groups. Each child who receives a Box of Joy also receives a rosary and a booklet in their own language that tells The Story of Jesus. Box of Joy provides hope to children in need, each gift represents Christ’s love, and may be the only Christmas gift they receive.
