We loaded 180 + mattresses and 40+ wheel chairs and Walkers this morning as well as 12 Computers and monitors and countless bags and boxes of clothes and household items... which will soon be on their way to Cuba

So now we have quite a lot of space in the warehouse to fill back up again..

Thanks to all who have donated and or are collecting items and those who were out to help today.....

New2cuba I think I will hear you calling me to come get a mattress in my sleep tonight.....

After we went for lunch and fellowship and watched Joe's slides of the trip many of the foundation members took to the various schools and seniors homes that we sent items to last year...

It is rather touching that they leave the Dubois foundation sticker on many of the items so you could see what we had sent to them..... you could tell from the greeting the group got how very much the items are appreciated.

Hey Bigjohn

We sure missed you today. We needed a guy with extra long arms to hold the mattresses up.

I've been to a few of these container packs and I'm still amazed by how much stuff these guys can pack in a container. It's unbelievable.

And seeing the pics from the Dubois trip to Cuba was fantastic. To actually see pics of the hospitals, schools, old age homes etc using the goods that are sent to them... well, words cannot describe it

Poor rumrunner, I really was a slave driver to the poor guy today ;)
"Rumrunner, get over here and help me with these mattresses". Yep the poor man heard that from me way too many times today :rof:
Good work my mattress partner :rof: :rof:
