Mid-Atlantic Shows Up in Force for Friends Helping Friend’s Day
Attached is a photo of one of the teams at Boscov’s Department Store during Friends Helping Friend’s Day. Volunteers were in five of the stores near where they live. Together, the volunteers raised more than $2,384 for Orphan Grain Train Mid-Atlantic branch in West Grove. As they interacted with shoppers, they shared the mission of OGT. The photo is of Kathy Mest and Sandra O’Hedy at the store in Dover, Delaware.
Thank you, to all the volunteers who participated in this event and shared the OGT story with everyone who stopped by their tables.
