We are proud to be a part of an organization that reaches out in such an unselfish way. Thanks to Jere, Tom and the Board of Directors and to the employees who have given so liberally to this worthy cause.

Willa Carpenter and Bobby Mozingo coordinated Beasley Allen's hurricane relief donations, loading the 82Racing 18 wheeler trailer with grocery and clothes donations which Grant delivered to the Daphne Red Cross evacuee center Friday night.

The Daphne center, operated by Baldwin County volunteers, was designated to receive the much needed load of supplies at the last minute, after most of the evacuees originally placed in Robertsdale were dispersed to other locations.

On September 6th, we mailed off 100 bags of personal hygiene items to the Houston Astrodome in Houston, TX.

Water was supplied to 1500 State Troopers who were serving in South AL.

We gathered donations from employees of Beasley Allen. These were delivered to Helping Hands - a group of churches collecting needs for the hurricane victims.

We had 37 boxes and 5 plastic bags of ladies and men clothes, kids clothes, toys, books and crayons. Toiletries, diapers, paper wear.

From donations gathered from Local Attorneys and Calhoun Foods, we gave 4 pickup loads of clothes, paper goods, and food items to New Life Church of God In Christ for refugees.

102 cases of cereal, paper towels/bath room tissue, body wash, lysol, coffee, crackers, candles, off, and dried plums, were given to Evangel Temple Church.

12 plastic bags of personal items was given to Gateway Baptist Church. These items were taken to Ocean Springs, Ms.

Salvation Army will pick up clothes this week.
