The final shipment of the Military Support Group “Operation We Care” supplies went to Matt Pearson, son of Randy Pearson, GROWMARK seed division manager, quality assurance. Matt is a Marine Staff Sergeant currently deployed in Afghanistan. Matt’s unit received 14 boxes of school supplies and clothing.
During the last few months the supplies distributed to local school children and women in Nawzad (also Now Zad, a small town in the center of the district of Helmand Province, Afghanistan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:City_of_Now_Zad.jpg) put smiles on the faces of many. Photos were taken by Cpl. Kyle Green who commented:“Your gifts were greatly appreciated by the locals here in Now Zad.”
Thank you again to all who participated in this humanitarian effort with their generous donations to help our troops build relationships and goodwill in combat zones.
