National Collection Week is Nov. 13-20, 2023

The Hilltop youth group started packing shoebox gifts for Operation Christmas Child more than twenty years ago and Hilltop began serving as a collection center in 2002. Each year our collection center receives close to 5,000 shoeboxes from the Greater Mankato area. The boxes travel to a processing center in Chicago and from there they are shipped to locations all over the world to children in need.
