Thanks Cumberland, WI Urban Immersion Volunteers
Thanks to the Greater Minneapolis Council of Churches Urban Immersion volunteers from Cumberland High School in Cumberland, Wisconsin that sorted and packed supplies this morning! These supplies will be included in our next shipment to Bolivia, where they will be distributed to Mano a Mano programs and other organizations throughout the country.

The picture below is an example of a small distribution of similar supplies to what was sorted this morning – crutches and medical supplies – using one of the Mano a Mano planes, which allows us to distribute supplies to the most remote areas of Bolivia.
