Humanitarian Assistance Preparation

We are heading out for our first humanitarian assistance mission soon. Here you see me with some of the bags of food we've prepared. We have powdered milk, rice, beans, salt and even toothbrushes for each family. Each family also has a bag of clothes prepared for them. Obviously this takes a lot of work to sort and stuff each bag. Sorting bags of clothes is also very difficult and time consuming.

In the back of this storage box you can also see school supplies that we've gathered. We can't distribute those yet because the schools are out right now. This picture gives you an idea of how we store stuff around here. Everything is kept in these "connex" boxes.

The clothes that you all are sending will be used in our next mission, which I am starting to plan. I promise to take lots of pictures and post them for you. If you want to know more about our plans or want to help, read the preceeding blog entries below. My email address is below, or in the "my profile" section to the right if you have specific questions.

THANK YOU for your help!!!!
