OCC 2017 - Halfway point summary, with attached photo album
Total at midpoint of campaign: 1,772 OCC boxes
Click on headline for full summary with photo album for campaign through Wednesday, November 15, 2017
By Mark Fudge, Adair County OCC Coordinator
Yesterday, Wednesday, November 15, 2017, was our busiest day as yet as we processed over 1000 OCC boxes bringing our total at the end of the day Wednesday to 1772 OCC boxes.
Even though we are running behind last year's record pace we are still optimistic that we can reach our goal of 4000 boxes.
It's not too late for you as an individual, and organization, or a church to still get involved. This is a great way to help children and families in need all across the world.
