10,000+. Thatā€™s the record-breaking number of Operation Christmas Child boxes Charleston Southern University students packed in 2021. (Read: More than any other college or university in the nation.)

CSU hopes to break this record again by packing 12,000+ boxes this year. Hereā€™s how you can help them reach it:

  • Drop off donations (think: socks, small toys, toothbrushes, and more) at CSU on Thurs., Nov. 10.
  • Help pack boxes on Thurs., Nov. 17.

ā€˜Tis the season to volunteer.*
