The sixth annual “Give to a Giver” project is an opportunity for individuals, departments or groups to spread holiday cheer around the world by sending a little reminder of home to Loma Linda University Health overseas missionaries and their families.
These missionaries are Loma Linda University alumni, global service awardees, deferred mission appointees, or Adventist Health International long-term volunteers. They serve at Loma Linda University Health strategic partner sites as physicians, dentists, hospital administrators, nurses and public health educators.
Care packages are collected and shipped by Loma Linda University Health’s Global Health Institute in collaboration with Students for International Mission Service and the National Association of Seventh-day Adventist Dentists.
Want to sponsor a Christmas care package? Here’s how it works:
- Choose a missionary/missionary family and pick up a shipping box from the Global Health Institute, 24888 Prospect Ave.
- Fill it — up to 20 pounds.
- Return it, unsealed, by Friday, Dec. 14.
- Feel warm fuzzies!
