          Include Samaritian's Purse in your Back-to-School Shopping 
          Happy August!!! I was just at Walmart and noticed the back to school aisles. Samaritan’s Purse is always top of mind for me. I’m always checking things out and seeing what I can add to my growing stash for the Shoeboxes. So, while you are out school shopping, pick up some extras for the Shoeboxes. Our packing party will be here before we know it. You can go to: Official Shoebox Gift Suggestions to find ideas to help decide what to include in a box. 
          Thank you!!’
