BENEDICTION BOX

WHAT IS A BENEDICTION BOX?

Here is a sample of a “Benediction Box” gives to a refugee family. It usually consists of 1-2 reusable tote bags that make it easier to carry (We learned cardboard boxes disappear quickly as they are used for signs and sunscreens, plus people preferred the reusable tote bags because they were easier to carry).

A grocery cart full of food and personal care items. BBI people will buy and organize these to give to Venezuelan refugees in the streets. $100 US dollars go a long ways in Colombia!
