Great Volunteers Help Load Aid
Many volunteers at OGT’s Colorado West Collection Center loaded 897 boxes with shoes, accessories, clothing of all kinds, quilts, bedding, toys, pillowcase dresses, mittens, underwear and socks. Also included in shipment were 183 boxes of miscellaneous items for Border Missions. Last but not least, unboxed items such as walkers, shower seats, leg braces, canes, crutches, knee scooter, wagon, infant car seat, baby crib, and sleeping bags. There was more but not enough room in tractor trailer which will unload at OGT’s Norfolk warehouse in Nebraska. What a joy these items will bring to people around the globe. What a blessing to give! Thank you, Colorado West donors and volunteers!
