Change in Saturday volunteering

The truck collecting the goods from St Michael’s on Saturday, 7/30, has changed the time to the afternoon on Saturday. Work time will now start at 1pm.

As many know, the packing up of the goods going to Ukraine is a process which includes labelling boxes, accounting for the contents of each box and getting the boxes on the truck.

Thank you for your willingness to help! It is much appreciated.

Ukrainian Relief Project New Haven needs help Friday, 5/6

We now have a vehicle available to transport all of our boxes to Dnipro in NJ this coming Saturday, May 7th.

Mykola Blyzniuk will be bringing his truck to the church hall Friday evening , May 6, so we can load it up and make it ready to deliver to the Dnipro warehouse on Saturday morning.

From there, it is going by plane to Ukraine.

Three aspects of help needed:

1.) We are in need of some strong people to join us at the church hall 3pm on Friday to begin moving all of the boxes to the staging area and then, when the truck arrives, piling them up on pallets in the truck and wrapping them for the trip.

2.) We need some people to check off the numbers of the packages that are loaded into the truck so that we can confirm that everything that is on the master inventory list is accounted for before the truck leaves the church.

3.) We need help out with loading the 559 boxes and 167 pieces of equipment on the truck when it arrives that will be sent to Ukraine next week.

RSVP.

Peace for Ukraine
