The Ray of Hope packing party today was a big success! Seven volunteers showed up at Teresa's house to fill 9 duffel bags with medical equipment, baby clothes & blankets, school supplies & tooth brushes. When we were done, we weighed the bags & figure we're transporting over 400 lbs of supplies to Kenya. Wow. It was nice for Kate & me to meet a couple of the volunteers we're going to Kenya with-Filza, a OHSU medical resident, & Tristan, one the physician asst students from Pacific Univ in Forrest Grove. We took a break in the middle of the packing event to enjoy lunch on the back deck of Teresa's house & tour her bountiful garden! Finally, a big thank you to Jamie, an AmeriCorps volunteer, who came to her first ROH event and helped out sorting supplies for a couple hours. Now...next stop....KENYA!!
