Hurricane Response Hotline: (402) 371-9313

Orphan Grain Train's Norfolk office welcomes the return of two disaster response
veterans, Mr. Vern Steinman and Dr. Aaron Walter, both of Norfolk, Neb.

Both served Orphan Grain Train during ten months of the Hay and Grain Lift effort in response to Nebraska's drought of 2002-2003. They oversaw the delivery of more than 330 semi-trailer loads of donated hay and grain to selected farms and ranches in central and western Nebraska.

Vern and Aaron have again volunteered, this time to manage Orphan Grain Train's
response to requests for food and relief supplies, questions about donations,
and volunteer sign-up and assignment.

Donors, volunteers, and relief workers in the Disaster region can now call Orphan Grain Train's Hurricane Response Hotline: (402) 371-9313, Monday through Friday between 9 a.m. and 12:00 Noon, and from 1 to 4 p.m. You may also leave a message after hours. (If the hotline is busy, please try later, or call Orphan Grain Train's main telephone number: (402) 371-7393.)
