Project Scrub Bucket
In response to the current flooding across several states in the midwest, and the risk of much more to come, Orphan Grain Train is again announcing Project Scrub Bucket: 5-gallon buckets filled with cleaning supplies for mucking out flood-soaked homes.
Each bucket holds approximately $40 worth of cleaning supplies (including broom and mop). Cash donations of all sizes are requested to help fill the buckets.
Donations may be made through our secure online giving page (click here) or by check or money order payable to “Orphan Grain Train Flood and Storm Relief” PO Box 1466, Norfolk, NE 68702-1466. When giving on-line please select “Flood and Storm Response Fund” from Gift Information options.
Each scrub bucket includes:
Comet TM or other cleansing powder
Lysol TM or other liquid cleaner
Bleach (1-gal. size)
WindexTM or other glass cleaner
Scrub brush
Rubber gloves
Sponge(s)
Roll of paper towels
Broom and/or mop
Thousands of buckets were distributed throughout the hurricane-affected areas in 2006, and hundreds more after the mid-west floods of 2007, 2008, and 2010.
