From $1,000 Gift, Iowa West Gets Bunkers and T-Shirts

A big thank you to Steve Frank, a regional board member of Thrivent from Milford, Iowa. Steve gifted Orphan Grain Train Iowa West with $1,000 to use as they wish. Volunteers purchased supplies to build bins in the bunker room to help organize donated items that are packed in bags. The remaining balance of the funds was used to purchase new t-shirts for regular volunteers. The t-shirts arrived and this is a photo of most of the volunteers wearing them. Thank you, OGT Iowa West volunteers for your dedication and show of force!
I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing the praises of the name of the Lord Most High.
Psalm 7:17 NIV
