| KC Metro area reaches out to provide supplies to hurricane ravaged areas |
| 2nd Chance Books is helping send aid and comfort to the victims of Hurricane Katrina With Books and Supplies A Missouri man left Saturday, September 10, 2005 for his second trip to the hurricane-stricken region. On Wednesday he left the Kansas City metro area with two trailers full of donated supplies for hurricane victims. The donated items came from hundreds of people in Lafayette and Jackson counties. Dave Walker drove the trucks to Newton County in Mississippi. "In that county, the only thing they got for delivery was one truckload of water for the whole county -- that was their delivery yesterday." Walker also drove donations to victims of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. He said what seems like a lot of items, will quickly be used up. "You think you've done so much until you get there, and you see how much devastation there's been......and you feel like it's just a drop in the bucket," Walker said. 2nd Chance Books donated more than 30 boxes of supplies. See pictures below for the packing and shipping. We deeply appreciate the hard work of everyone who helped with preparing these supplies, and most especially Mr. Walker for driving his truckload of much-needed good not once, but TWICE to the stricken areas. Please show your support for this fine humanitarian! David Walker Walker Tire 403 Action Road Odessa MO (816) 230-5752 |
