Grant Received Will Help With Warehouse Repairs
OGT’s Phoenix Branch is giving thanks to God as we were selected to be a recipient of a LWML Grant from the English District to help make repairs to our warehouse, especially to our Hot Water Heater and our Loading Dock. With this grant money, we will be able to allocate other funds and donations to continue the work of providing clothing and other items to our Arizona communities and to those in need all over the world.
We give thanks to God for the continued work of the LWML, as their mites have supported ministries of the Lutheran Church for over 80 years. We also give thanks to the local English District LWML chapters here in Arizona that brought this request for grant money to their District Convention.
If you would like to continue to support the effort of Orphan Grain Train – Phoenix, we need clothing donations. We pack boxes full of clothes at our warehouse 1329 N. 29th Ave. Suite E15 in Phoenix, on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays every month from 8am-12pm. You can also financially support our work by sending donations to https://www.ogt.org/branches/phoenix/
