OUR SECOND CONTAINER

What an inspirational day, a record number of volunteers, our second container and our mountain of shoeboxes starting to reduce.
Just over a week into our 2014 campaign and we have despatched our second container, this time to Kyrgyzstan. We have been sending shoeboxes there for a number of years now and three of our volunteers have been on distribution trips there too.






Do you know the way to Kyrgyzstan?

DONT WORRY!! Jenny isn't driving ..... much as she'd love to!  All the 873 cartons containing 8970 shoeboxes left the GU KT warehouse safely with a professional driver.

So who helped?..... Everyone! There was loads of muscle to load and thanks for that but all in all its a team effort and here is the team.... well, most of them.


Then we have to ensure the seal is on the closed doors of the container for the safe journey, this will not be opened until the container  arrives in Kyrgyzstan, passed by customs and then opened and despatched to all the different areas the shoeboxes need to travel to in order to reach the children who need them so much.
