With the Holidays quickly
approaching, Alyssa Wilmoth, a sophomore student at The University of
Mississippi, spreads Christmas joy not only around campus but also to children
in poverty stricken countries. She
brought the organization Operation Christmas Child onto campus after previously
partaking in the organization at her local church.
“Each participant gets a shoe box
and they pack it with toys for a girl or boy in whichever age group they
chose. Then they wrap the box up
and send it off and a child overseas receives it who may not get a Christmas
present that year,” said Wilmoth.
Alyssa enjoys participating in the organization because she knows that a child out there in enjoying their Christmas just like she does with her family each year.
