Greetings all!

     August is now upon us. July was a very busy month for me with the 4th of July and family visiting and vacationing. I am back home and recently sent out another shipment to Afghanistan. This time, I chose to use a big 20x20 box to save money on shipping. It worked as far as saving money, but the box was very heavy and bulky. I would like to say a big thank you to the kind Marine who helped me carry it from my car into the post office yesterday. I really appreciated it. :)I shipped 3 boxes yesterday and I have at least 3 more to ship in the next couple of days.
     I received an update from our contact in Afghanistan. He stated that the schools that are being started are very similar to the school we remember from the old favorite TV show "Little House on the Prairie". So things like paper, pencils, individual pencil sharpeners, chalk and small chalk boards are what is most needed at this time.

Again, I want to thank everyone for helping out as much as they have. May God bless you all for your generosity.
