Great Need for Hygiene Kits Prompts Volunteer and Family “Kit Making Day”

In early October, Karen Mangels and family members, John, Seth, Anna and Evelyn came to Orphan Grain Train Servant Center and packed 124 hygiene kits. Hygiene kits are a much-needed item for domestic and international shipments.
Because of the earthquake in Cebu, Philippines a few weeks ago, recipients there are asking for hygiene kits and disaster supplies. OGT Norfolk is currently trying to build up their hygiene kit inventory so that several pallets can be included on this shipment.
