Welcome to Operation Christmas Drop!

  Since 1952, the Christmas Drop Organization has been spreading joy and much needed relief to residents in the most remote parts of the Marianas island chain. For over half a century, this enduring legacy of success garnered by Operation Christmas Drop is a true testament to the generosity and goodwill of the citizens of Guam and it's military partners. With 2008 marking our 56th anniversary, we have set an aggressive goal to airdrop 200 boxes to more than 35,000 inhabitants spread out over dozens of smaller islands. This will mark an unprecedented milestone as Operation Christmas Drop charges ahead into the twenty-first century!

  Through the cooperation of local and military communities in the Asia-Pacific region, Operation Christmas Drop has delivered over 800,000 pounds of much needed food, supplies, tools, and toys to thousands of residents throughout Micronesia.  What started as a a lone WB-50 aircrew returning to Guam on its final flight before Christmas, has turned into the longest running humanitarian campaign not only in the history of the US Air Force, but of the entire world!

  Volunteers can help in a number of different capacities, while donors can participate in the "Box Sponsorship" or other funds-related programs. Your contribution, no matter how small,  truly make a difference to the lives of our surrounding neighbors. We look forward to you and your organization joining us again this year and making 2008 the best drop yet!
