Clothing Distribution Reaches Those Most in Need
Thank you to everyone who donated clothing or school supplies to our recent drive. The Civil Affairs team of Major Thomas Espinoza, U.S. Marine Corps (3rd Battalion/4th Marine) was able to distribute these much-needed items in the Upper Gereshk Valley of Helmand Province. This region of Afghanistan is extremely poor, unstable, and has long been outside the reach of nonprofit or military aid. Major Espinoza said it for us best, on behalf of everyone involved with the distribution:
“The donations were greatly appreciated by the locals as they would not have received support otherwise. The donations also help develop a positive relationship between the locals and the Marines and complemented Marine Corps projects. The positive rapport that was developed was the first step in bringing development and a better quality of life to the locals. Without your donations, it would have been impossible. Thank you.” Read more >>
