Thank you....You made it happen!

Thank you to all who have donated money and gifts-in-kind. We'd like to give a special thanks to Fareway, The Loft and Duck Worth Wearing for their generous donations and to the Coopers for letting us use their garage to store donations.

Thank you to our hardworking volunteers who came weekly to help sort, pack, and load. Your heartfelt interest in this labor of love was evident. Thank you for serving!!

Here are some of the photos from August 11, 2011 as our volunteers came to help load two trucks.








We'll keep you posted on the container's journey to Zimbabwe....stay tuned!
