Our trip to NOLA schools was a huge success on lots of fronts! One of the big reasons for this success is due to our hard-working volunteers who made their way to Mokena on Friday, August 6th. The above clip gives you a glimpse into the time, effort and organization that went into getting the supplies ready to be shipped to New Orleans.
The pallets were organized by schools. Each school got varying amounts of crayons, pencils, markers, pens, folders, uniforms, binders, notebooks and loose leaf paper depending upon its need and overall population.
This is no easy task but Dawn Oler, Corky and Julie King, Laura Milas, Andy Laux, Chris Wilbur, Chris Freiler (and his son and daughter), Peggy Luther, Skip Begley, Nancy Schuessler, Barb Ioli, Maria O'Donnell and Bob Skowronski loaded 27 pallets in record time.
Take a look at the video and you'll get some idea of the terrific work of so many wonderful people.
Thanks to one and all!
