Did you know that the country of Lao had more bombs dropped on it during the Vietnam War than all of Europe combined during World War 2? That's CRAZY, and considering Lao is 2 countries away from Vietnam, you have to wonder how many bombs Vietnam and Cambodia had dropped on them. YIKES! Sad thing is that most of them are still undetonated, so it's kinda like a mine-field.
Samaritans Purse has also produced over 40 million litres of CLEAN water in Sri Lanka since the Tsunami of last year.
Operation Christmas Child collects rougly 7-10 million shoeboxes per year from the 10 participating nations (Canada, USA, Australia, New Zealand, UK, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Finland) and distributes to over 80 nations worldwide. However, they will NEVER enter the same location more than once. Yet OCC, which has been operating since 1993, has barely scratched the surface of reaching all the children in need around the world.
