Disaster Relief Items for Maui Collected for OGT

Mary Martha Circle at Faith Lutheran Church in Sioux City, IA did an amazing job raising $890.00 in a few hours to purchase items on the ‘Needs List’ for Maui! They were having an OGT truck coming to pick up 10 pallets of Mercy Meals and wanted to include these items to take back to the Norfolk warehouse for the next Maui shipment. They did not have much time to plan and were very successful with getting aid for families in Maui! Thank you everyone involved with Mary Martha Circle and Mercy Meals of Siouxland!
