Volunteers Celebrating Ten Years of Packing Together in Wisconsin
This is a photo of volunteers from an Orphan Grain Train packing station in Plover, Wisconsin. The volunteers are celebrating ten years of sorting and packing boxes together. In that time, they have filled 35,000 boxes along with other items shipped.
We are so grateful for your many years of dedication in sorting, preparing, packing and organizing all of these items so they can be shared with others. Orphan Grain Train relies on volunteers to help share resources with people in the United States and around the world.
