October 2016 Shipment to DRC

Packing Boxes for Shipment to DRC

In September 2016, MiHEC board members and volunteers in Fort Collins, Colorado (USA) packed plastic bins of donated children’s goods, medical supplies, and school supplies for shipment to orphanages in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The bins were then loaded into a shipping container in Denver, and the shipment by boat commenced in October 2016.
