Our first container has been packed and is ready to go to port in Virginia where it will be sent by ship to Ghana. It should arrive by the time we fly into Ghana at the end of January.  

After countless hours of collecting, planning and packing we realized that we have come into contact with some very generous people, and there are friends and family who we could not have done this without their support.

Boxes loaded: 199
Estimated weight: 7,181 lbs.
Estimated value: $130,000

Thank you to the Sears Family for hosting The 1stAnnual Tiny Warriors Golf Scramble. Thank you to the Mercy Hospital system for their scrub drive and generous medical equipment donation. Thank you to the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital employees for collecting and donating medical supplies. Thank you to Kelly Lumber, Mike Coppage and Matt our forklift driver! Special thanks to Carol, Eric, Katrina, Kristin and Todd.
 
Thank you to all who have made generous donations in order to get us here.  Not only do we appreciate your generosity, but the babies in Ghana will shortly be receiving the benefits.
