Raiford and his wife, Rhonda at the 1st Annual Shoebox Ride.
The shoebox ride began in 2010, after Raiford Baker had a vision for combining two things he Loved ... motorcycles and Operation Christmas Child. Raiford had been a long-time supporter of OCC, but wanted to do more for the organization, and wanted others to became aware of this great ministry - thus the Annual Shoebox Ride was born! He recruited his daughter Mandy to help, and here we are!
At the very first Shoebox ride in 2010, more than 50 motorcycles participated, and enough money was raised to fill and ship just over 40 boxes!

Raiford and Mandy have worked together over the past 10 years to find new ways to grow this ministry so as many children as possible can experience the love of Chirst.
It is our prayer that this event continue to gain momentum and support, in order to provide for as many children as possible!
Since 2010 We have been able to provide over 1800 children with a gift filled shoebox!
