Clearpoint Direct Supports Samaritan's Purse

Samaritans Purse

Each year, ClearPoint employees fill shoe boxes destined to children in less fortunate countries. We pack our boxes with school supplies, hygiene items and small toys for boys and girls, ages 2-4, 5-9 and 10-14. Some of us pool our money together for a large shopping spree, while others do it as a family project with their own children at home and then bring them to the office.

We then spread out the purchases on large tables and distribute the goodies equally into each box. We also include a picture of our entire ClearPoint family along with a letter for each child to read. We want them to know that there are people, far away, who care for them and wish to not only send gifts, but wishes and prayers for a Merry Christmas and a healthy, happy and prosperous future!

When you give money to some charities you can run the risk of the money not reaching the truly needy. This gift has no other purpose than making a child happy. Unlike financial donations, there is no question that the items inside the box cannot be used in any negative way and the sole purpose is to make a child smile.

This is a project that is very dear to us and we hope to continue doing it for many years to come, as well as inspire others to do the same. It's a wonderful way to make a difference in a child's life!

Thank you to all who participated!
