Christine Webb featured in Guideposts Magazine
What an honor to be featured in Guideposts. It’s something my Mom and Dad always read to me to inspire that anything is possible.
My experience in Haiti during the earthquake changed my life. It changed my perspective on everything. I made a promise to my Haitian friend and Principal Milo Francious. After walking 10 miles to come see the group, he said he had lost everything, family, house, school, but not his faith. He looked me straight in the eye and said, “My sister, my sister, don’t forget me, don’t forget the people of Haiti.”
I saw God’s miracles first hand – and how much He truly loves each and every one of us and I vow to continue to keep that promise.
One person can make a difference. You can make a difference. That’s right YOU. I hope my story in Guideposts Magazine touched your heart. Now, YOU have the chance to make a difference in so many people’s lives.
I want to encourage you to take part in the Shoebox drive. Grab a shoebox and fill it with items. I want to challenge you to gather a group and spread the word. Haiti needs you. Tell your family, tell your friends, neighbors and those at Church and school. This is something so simple each of us can do to help those in Haiti restore their hope and rebuild their lives. Each of us can make a difference. I hope you’ll join me in collecting shoeboxes. God is so Awesome!
Let’s shine His light and make a difference to those who need it most now! Jesus says in Matthew 25:40 “Whatever you did for one of the least of my brothers you did for me.” Do something for Jesus. Pack a shoebox. Pray for the people in Haiti. You can make a difference. And from the bottom of my heart I thank you!

Foundation Academy Students Collect Shoeboxes
With the history earthquake on January 12, 2010, students have come together to collect shoeboxes for Haiti.
On Wednesday, March 3, the Foundation Academy in Winter Garden, Florida, kicked off their Haiti shoebox drive by collecting 80 shoeboxes during their chapel service. These gifts are uniquely prepared for post-earthquake needs impacting lives of children in Haiti.
More than ever, children and their families in Haiti need our support and help. This is a great way to give something tangible that will make a big difference.

Today, volunteers served at the Shoebox Drive processing center. We welcomed people from three churches: Northland Church in Longwood, First Baptist Winter Garden, and Grace Point Church in Orlando. Richelle and Marissa, from Daytona State College drove in with 72 shoeboxes they collected.
As of today, Saturday, November 7th, we have collected 2,036 shoeboxes already packed on 9 pallets. Our goal is 10,000 shoeboxes and we are very thankful for this strong start to this year's Christmas Shoebox Drive, Nov 1 - Dec 18th.
There is still time to host a collection drive at your church, school, or office. Visit our resources page.
