We've got some great news on the progress of the 'Give a Toss' clothing donation.  We received the below email from Andean Outreach's director early this AM!

Hello Micheal and Sarah,
 
I have great news!  We have successfully recovered the clothing from Aduanas and the port.  Cargo 1 loaded up the clothing at 9:00 pm tonight and it will be shipped to Huancayo overnight arriving tomorrow morning.  I was so happy when I spoke with Jonee that I almost cried!  We are very grateful for the help of APCI and Sarah Duenas as well as for you two and the Cotswold team.  I will be talking to Jonee and Dany on Saturday to work out the logistics on the donation distribution which should happen next week. 
 
It is amazing to think we started this process back in October!  Thank you so much for your patience. 
 
I will let you know when I have the final details from our team in Huancayo.
 
Many thanks,
Terry

Congratulations to Andean Outreach!  All that hard work will now pay off.

We'll update our photo gallery once we get some photos through from the distribution (planned for next week). Thanks again to all the customers, family and friends that gave clothing and time to make this happen!
