Maryland and New England Branches Share Vital Medical Equipment Locally
In late May, both Orphan Grain Train-Maryland and Orphan Grain Train-New England shared a great deal of medical equipment to people in their communities. Many shower chairs, commodes, walkers and wheelchairs have been picked up at these locations by individuals who are in need either from failing health, recent surgery or change in abilities. OGT-Maryland gave out over 53 medical items and OGT-New England over 125. Thank you, to all the volunteers who clean, prepare, fix and share these items that are so needed by so many.
