Operation Christmas Child

As part of SMAD this year, we are starting an initiative at KDC called Operation Christmas Child (OCC) (run by Samaritans Purse) which aims to provide kids in developing countries with the necessities they require to develop and grow. This will be achieved by the collection of shoe boxes filled with items that the children can use everyday. Your child's HOUSE either Red, Green, Yellow or Blue are the point to bring your generous donations to.
