Since I got back to Afghanistan in late February, I have received dozens of boxes from generous folks back in the US. The First Baptist Church in Girard, OH has sent two big shipments and they are now clothing a number of very poor children and keeping a woman's literacy clinic going in a village called Shibartu.
My old friends from Anchorage, AK, led by Marcus Reese, sent some wonderful stuff that is already helping Afghan Children. And our new friend, Shelley George, a school teacher from NC, remembered the adults who care for children at the Samar Orphanage and sent them all coats!
Friends from bagram have also been sending stuff--Traeci Deveraux, John Michael and Mhairi Elliott and their friends. Sorry if I missed anybody--send me a reminder taped to your next box!
