Default Got a letter from the Salvation Army

Thought i would share.....

Dear Friends,

Thank you for your kind donation. The Bar-B-Q operations that were brought to the Village of Dexter during the Tornado relief were wonderful. What a great treat for the many people who were working so hard to clean up their homes.

The Michigan Chapter of OBR is to be commended for their outstanding service and compassion to those in need.

I can assure you that the mission and ministry of The Salvation Army greatly depends on people like you who are generous enough to share with us the many blessings that God has provided.

May God continue to bless you and your teams as you continue to share the gifts He has given to you with those who are less fortunate.

Sincerely,


Charles McDougall
Director Emergency Disaster Services

We also spoke on the phone the other day and they are interested in having personel there for some training exercises. I will put out the info when i get it.

Nice work to all that helped! Wish I could have snuck away from work, but I am proud to be part of this little online community that has a big heart!

Very nice, thanks for posting. I spoke to a rep from Oakland county emergency management last week. He is going to set our committee up with some training also.

To quote the late great singer Harry Chapin known for his work to feed the hungry, when asked why he does it, responded "It is doing the good work, with the good people" great job well done!!
