Despite the threat of a nuclear meltdown Convoy of Hope is working tirelessly to get much-needed food, water and emergency supplies into the hands of survivors of last week’s earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
“Our team and partners in Japan are determining the best options for mobilizing and distributing supplies in the hardest hit areas,” says Kary Kingsland, senior vice president of Global Initiatives for Convoy of Hope. “We are poised to help the Japanese people now and in the coming months.”
In addition to food secured in the Pacific region, Convoy of Hope will ship blankets, portable stoves, hygiene products and other items from its world distribution center in Springfield, Mo.
