A 40-foot container of relief supplies left for Peru yesterday, in efforts to help those continuing to struggle after the August 2007 earthquake that shook the country.
The container, which shipped from Giving Children Hope’s distribution center in Buena Park, included food, cooking equipment and wheelchairs to Vineyard Church, Giving Children Hope’s partner in Peru. The Vineyard Church staff will use the equipment and goods to open a kitchen to feed families and children from the community, many of which are still struggling to rebuild their lives following the earthquake in August 2007.
This is Giving Children Hope’s third container of relief to Peru since the August 2007 earthquake. This is the fourth overall in that region.
Giving Children Hope is committed to bringing hope and relief to the people of Peru, and is able to do so through YOUR help and support.
