August is the time when donated goods and supplies are packed in a shipping container by people here in Keene, NH, and then sent to Zimbabwe, to be unpacked by the people of the UCC-Keene’s partner church in Mt. Selinda.
Each year, donations are collected at the home of a UCC-Keene member and are packed by volunteers on several evenings in August.
Requested donations this year included school supplies, sports equipment, photocopy machines, sewing machines, chainsaws, musical instruments, bedding, clothing, crutches and canes, laptops, nursing books, Bibles, and tools.
