SHARE LOVE BOX2016-2025
"Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."(Matthew 25:40)
To give a gift to the newborn Jesus is to give to those who are in need today.
The Share Love Box Christmas project was launched in 2016, and for the past 8 years, it has been bringing joy and hope to children on both sides of the ocean. It unites people from different corners of the world to make the world a better and warmer place.
Project Goal
AMERICAN CHILDREN LEARN TO HELP
As part of the project, children in the USA are given the opportunity to learn how to help and support those in need, especially during the holiday season.
UKRANIAN CHILDREN RECEIVE CHRISTMAS GIFTS
Children in Ukraine who are going through difficult times receive Christmas gifts and care from the other side of the world, bringing them hope and a sense of celebration even in the darkest moments.
The project aims not only to provide material assistance but also to foster cultural and spiritual exchange, creating an atmosphere of support and solidarity between generations, countries, and cultures. It is based on biblical principles of love, mercy, and mutual help, making it particularly valuable and meaningful.
How It Works
PREPARING THE GIFTS
DISTRIBUTING THE GIFTS
Our volunteers in Ukraine deliver the gifts to orphanages, hospitals, and homes. These gifts go to specific children, some of whom we have known for many years—children battling cancer, those from schools for the hearing impaired, children who have survived the hardships of war, and families with special needs.
Children in the USA, along with their parents and teachers, prepare festive boxes filled with gifts for Ukrainian children. These may include toys, books, clothing, stationery, and other necessary items that will bring joy and ease to their everyday lives.
Importance of the Project
● The project promotes the development of emotional intelligence and social responsibility among children.
● It fosters international cooperation and understanding between different peoples and cultures.
● By engaging the younger generation, the project instills in them a sense of shared responsibility for the fate of others, which is essential for building a more humane and just world.
This project does not just offer the chance to receive gifts, but also helps to cultivate values of mercy, compassion, and mutual support, which are crucial in today’s world. As Jesus said: "Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me."
