Now, when these DONATIONS come in, there is still the problem of unloading, moving, sorting, and redistributing it. This required money, to be turned into fuel and maintenance costs. To expect a church group to provide that as well as the manpower is asking a LOT


Truth. Being relatively young and strong, most of my volunteering time was spent doing this.

<OT RANT>Please people, if you're going to bring down or donate a load of supplies, pre-organize everything (ie...diapers by size, cleaning supplies by type, food, water, etc...) box it, LABEL it, put it on pallets by category, then bring it. At that point they can pull it off the trucks and use it almost right away. Oh, and noone wants your crusty used clothes.</OT RANT>
