Better Moms, Better World!

"Each year, Operation Christmas Child delivers millions of gift-filled show boxes to hurting children around the world.  This project is personal---a shoe box gift can be as unique as the person packing it.  It's so simple, even a child can do it."  --Dr. and Mrs. Billy Graham

"Most of these children come from families that are not able to give them Christmas presents.  For many of them, these are the first gifts they've ever recieved.  They will never forget it.  They didn't know who gave them the gift, but they knew it came from God." --Pastor, Uganda

If you would like to work with MOPS this year in giving a shoebox to a little child please click on the picture of the shoe box and it will direct you to Samaritan's Purse.

 


Ever think that you want to help out people, but there is not enough money to go around?  Well, here is a way that you can help others without spending a penny.  In fact, you might even save some money in the process! 

A group of us at MOPS have decided to grow our hair out for Locks of Love.  The hair you donate goes to provide hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children 18 years and younger suffering from long-term medical hair loss.  To find out more about this non-profit organization please click the hearts above or below.  If you want to join the group of us at MOPS supporting each other in this endevor please email us at spcmops@yahoo.com.

Just in case you are interested...here are some guidelines that Locks of Love requires:

  1. We accept 10" minimum hair length (tip to tip), not wigs, falls, or synthetic hair
  2. Please bundle hair in ponytail or braid.
  3. Hair needs to be clean, dry, placed in a plastic bag, then padded envelope.
  4. We need hair from men and women, young and old, all colors and races.
  5. Hair may be colored or permed, but not bleached or chemically damaged (if unsure, ask your stylist).
  6. Hair swept off the floor is not usable.
  7. Hair cut years ago is usable if it has been stored in a ponytail or braid.
  8. Hair that is short, gray, or unsuitable for children will be separated from the ponytails and sold at fair market value to offset the cost of manufacturing.
  9. You may pull curly hair straight to measure the minimum 10".
  10. The majority of all hair donated comes from children who wish to help other children.
  11. Layered hair may be divided into multiple ponytails for donation.
  12. Please note: Anyone can cut your hair as long as the above guidelines are followed.
