Ventanas Relief Truck Update: Kudos to everyone for stepping up with generous donations. The truck leaves on Saturday, Sept. 27th! Please note: the office is open Monday-Thursday 9 a.m.-4p.m. any orders/packages received after this Saturday will go on the next truck the following week. Thanks John Donovan of Red Rum Fishing for arranging the trucking. When he gets the final tally from the freight company and importer he will share the amount with us and he hopes that the good people of Ventanas will help out with that cost. Anyone who had wanted to get an order in, but weren’t able to pull it together, please consider this option of pitching in. I am trying to give everyone an idea of where we are at with all of the donations (it got a little confusing with cancelled orders and such so numbers are approx.). As of now, Walmart and Sams Club is reported to be open for business (how amazing is that?). While those with means will be able to purchase items at the store now, our friends who have lost so much will truly benefit from these donations. 1616 diapers: assorted sizes 198 rolls of toilet paper 72 AAA batteries 60 D batteries 62 cases of water 53 cans of infant formula (including goat milk for Fernandos baby) 40 cans of black beans 48 cans of chicken breast 40 AA batteries 36 toothbrushes 30 tubes of toothpaste 30 bars of soap 28 boxes of cereal 26 bottles of hand sanitizer 25 waterproof tarps 24 cans spaghettios 28 packages of instant soup 21 packages of diaper wipes 20 cans of tuna 20 jars of peanut butter 18 packages of powdered milk 12 pairs of work gloves 12 cans ham 10 bags of rice 10 packages spaghetti 10 cans tomato sauce 10 cans of canned fruit 10 cans corn 10 cans pork and beans 10 tuna with cracker pkgs 10 emerg. ration packs 10 snack packs of chocolate pudding 7 large bags of dog food 5 large bags of cat food 6 bottles of insect repellant 6 rolls paper towels 4 bottle grape jelly 3 bottles of lysol cleaner 3 packages infant rice cereal 2 fleece blankets .......and a partridge in a pear tree
