150 Boxes Packed in Four Hours
This group of energetic 14-year-olds that attend Platte River Academy in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, plus two Moms gave it their all in helping us sort and pack at OGT’s Castle Rock Collection Center. They packed over 150 boxes in four hours! One of the moms called the principal and told her what a great time and help the kids were having. Soon the principal showed up to introduce herself and thank us for having her students be a part of this servant event.
