Instructions

Here are some step-by-step instructions on sending a box

PLEASE DO NOT INCLUDE: Used or damaged items, camouflage (it's illegal to wear in Grenada), war related items (toy guns, knives, etc), chocolate, out of date candy, liquids or lotions, breakable items (snowglobes or glass containers), aerosol cans, medications or vitamins.

As a reminder, it is very HOT in Grenada. Please don’t send anything that can be ruined by the heat during shipping (eg. melty candy, chap sticks, lotions, etc).

How to Pack a Box:

1. Grab an old, empty shoebox. If you don't have a shoebox, that's OK. Just make sure the contents of whatever you ship add up to about the size of a regular shoe box.

2. Sign up here! You can sign up for a child age 2-5, age 6-10 or 11 and above. Once you get to the sign up page, you can specify if your box should be for a boy, for a girl or if it is neutral enough to be for either! First come first serve.

3. Fill the box with a variety of small gifts that are age appropriate. We have a printable list of suggestions for you here that you can take to the store. PLEASE DO NOT SPEND MORE THAN $20.00 PER BOX! We want the contents of each box to be similar for every child.

4. Tape this label onto the box so that we can see it.

5. Send it away! Printable address labels are here. Just make sure it arrives BEFORE November 1.

**If putting together a box isn’t your thing but you still want to contribute, you can send a check and we will put together a box for a child. Make checks payable to Julie Connolly and add Operation Grenada Child in the memo line.
