Holiday Giving Christmas Event

We will be partnering with the Bloomington Community Health Center in Bloomington, California. Together, we will hand out holiday-themed bags of groceries and toys to children – with a little help from Santa Claus himself!

Operation Devolver Backpack Event
Devolver. Return. Giving Back.
Back-to-school time for most means shopping for school supplies and getting ready for the upcoming year. In the tarp city of Barranca in Tuxpan near Jalisco, Mexico, families do not have the means to send their children back to school with the supplies they need for a successful year. These families receive very little government support. Their homes lack basic necessities. Project Boon knows these families should not have to face these challenges alone. The Project Boon team travels to the city of Tuxpan before the start of the school year to distribute backpacks, school supplies, food, and basic household necessities. The goal of Operation Devolver is to set the children of Barranca up for a successful school year by providing the supplies they will need.
Operation Devolver December Giving Event
For most families, the Christmas season is a time to celebrate. When you lack basic necessities, it makes it difficult to get into the Christmas spirit. Families in Barranca near Tuxpan in Jalisco, Mexico struggle to provide food, water, and even shelter. They receive very little in the way of government support. Through Operation Devolver, Project Boon aims to bring joy to the community at Christmas. Each year, the team travels to Barranca with toys, sporting goods, food, and basic household items. If you would like to help spread Christmas joy in Barranca through Operation Devolver, please contact Project Boon.
