Students and staff at Porter and Chester Institute’s Stratford campus recently took part in Operation Christmas Child, an international outreach program that seeks to spread Christmas joy to underprivileged children worldwide.

The Porter and Chester Institute community supported the effort by donating gifts to fill shoeboxes and money to cover shipping costs.

The effort was spearheaded by Tiffany Sanders, a career services advisor, and her organization, Restoration Springs Interdenominational Church. Founded in 1993, Operation Christmas Child has delivered more than 113 million gift-filled shoeboxes to children in over 150 countries.
