This compact compressed towel expands with water into a soft, reusable cloth designed to meet real, everyday needs. Thoughtfully sized to fit easily inside an Operation Christmas Child shoebox, it’s a practical way to help a child stay clean, comfortable, and cared for.
Unlike ultra-thin compressed wipes, this towel weighs a full 50 grams, providing more material, better coverage, and longer-lasting use. It’s small when packed, but meaningful when opened.
A towel may seem simple, but it helps restore dignity, cleanliness, and comfort. This is the kind of practical gift children will use again and again long after the shoebox is opened.
Our compressed towel is a full 50g—so it feels more like a real, usable cloth after it expands, not a paper-thin wipe. Can easily be used over and over again.
Note: Exact comparisons vary by brand and material, but weight is a simple way to show you’re getting a more substantial towel.
Side note: When we originally inquired about this item we asked for 100% cotton or Bamboo or Hemp. All though, all of these compressed towels are advertised as 100% cotton, we could not locate a single supplier that could "honestly" accomodate that request. Things that make you go: Hmmm..
