OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD PROMOTIONAL DISPLAY

If you don’t have an OCC logo tablecloth, use a solid black, floor length cloth. Black goes great with all of our materials and hides dirt. The new Journey of a Shoebox display will work well on 6’ or 8’ tables. If additional display pieces are needed, use acrylic or black holders found at an office supply store.

Provide samples of the materials described on the display: The Greatest Gift booklet, Ministry Partner Guide, The Greatest Journey workbook, and a New Testament. Place signage nearby to describe each sample.

Pack your best sample shoebox gift and include a sign beside it to explain the importance of “Wow” items. Consider having a wrapped or plastic box available so visitors don’t assume they can only participate with a pre-printed shoebox.

Printed Promotional Materials:Ministry Coordinators can order these materials in larger quantities via the Extranet under Resources/Order Free Materials (*these items are available in smaller quantities for public use at samaritanspurse.org/occ)

A display at a church or an event is a great way to encourage participation in Operation Christmas Child. For brand and messaging consistency, here are some tips to help you create a successful display.

Be sure to provide a way to capture contact information. Consider offering a bowl of candy to entice visitors to your display.
