GCH Continues to Send Relief to Gulf Coast

Today, Giving Children Hope is sending a 53-foot trailer of goods to Houston, Texas, as a part of Giving Children Hope’s ongoing relief efforts in the Gulf Coast, a region devastated Hurricane Katrina and Rita in 2005.

The container, shipping from Giving Children Hope’s distribution center in Buena Park, is filled with food, baby formula, diapers, and school supplies; items still needed in that area.

The goods will arrive at the Lindale Assembly of God in Houston and the church will pass out the goods to their list of people who were greatly affected by Hurricane Katrina.
