BOXES OF LOVE
CARE PACKS

“It is a sin to despise one’s neighbor, but blessed is the one who is kind to the needy.” Proverbs 14:21

With Boxes of Love, we provide $250USD ($335CDN) to be put toward purchasing practical essentials for care packages. Donate to your local homeless shelter or outreach organization. It’s that easy!

Why Boxes of Love? For those who are houseless, unsheltered, or unable to afford basic supplies, life’s challenges can feel overwhelming. This initiative aims to meet at least some of those needs in a simple yet meaningful way. We provide funds to Christadelphian individuals or ecclesias to purchase essential items, assemble care packs, and distribute to those in need. This is a great initiative to do as a group and is a fun way to get children involved in outreach. These care packs, filled with hygiene products, food, and other necessities, offer more than just physical relief. Each box is a reminder of compassion and care, bringing hope and dignity to those who receive it. Beyond that, these small acts of kindness can also open doors for sharing the gospel message, offering spiritual encouragement alongside the practical support.

“Our “boxes” were drawstring backpacks. We filled them with essentials like toothbrushes and toothpaste, tissues, feminine products, snacks; Bibles, handwarmers, gloves chapstick; wet wipes; bandaids, razors, combs and then I still had members of the ecclesia wanting to donate so we bought Dunkin Donut $5 gift cards and boxes of diapers and wipes. We donated everything to a women’s shelter that also had a food pantry for local residents. The diapers and wipes went to the pantry. They were most appreciative and we are hoping to work with them in the future and form a relationship. We told them to call if they had any specific needs.”
