Starting in 1996 the Osana Foundation, together with Samaritan's Purse and Patmos Foundation Finland, has distributed Christmas gifts to thousands of children in Constanta, Romania. It is so exciting to see how a small gift given in love brightens the lives of children.

For two weeks in December volunteers bring these gifts contained in shoeboxes to orphanages, hospitals, and poor communities in Constanta County. It is one of our greatest pleasures to brighten the lives of these children in this way. It is one way of sharing with them the gift God gave us… the gift of the birth of our Savior.
