You made a Difference!
We got up Saturday morning and started our journey to Ohatchee United Methodist Church in north Alabama with Parker, Rachel, and Myself. The Suburban was packed full! The 3rd row seats were folded up and you could not squeeze one more thing in.
Some of the things your money went to were Tylenol, Advil, Sinus Medicine, Work Gloves, Canned Goods, Granola Bars, Tooth Paste, Tooth Brushes, Deodorant, Disinfectant Wipes, Baby Clothes, Baby Bottles, Diapers, Baby Food, Baskets, Bags, Batteries, Hand Sanitizer, and Eating Utensils. We had a couple of people donate boxes/bags of clothes and toys also.
We tried to organize the stuff where people could just grab a basket or box and have a little bit of everything but that changed once we got there. So we unloaded all of the separated baskets and Tupperware containers – took them inside and grouped things together and placed the baskets and bags where people could come in and actually have something besides a plastic Walmart bag to carry their stuff out with.
Once we unloaded the bought supplies, we headed over to the Salvation Army drop off and gave them all of the clothes and shoes. They were running pretty low on clothes and let us know just how thankful they were of what we had brought.
Last Bag!
Thank all of you for sharing in this! The difference we made would not have been nearly as big without your help! Ohatchee United Methodist Church and the people of Ohatchee are better off because of you.
Nice work Joeseph!
