Denver- Saturday, May 6, 2006

Denver's UVMers had a "Packing Party" at World Vision!  World Vision is a relief and development organization working for the well-being of all people, especially children.  Established in 1950 to care for orphans in Asia, World Vision has grown to embrace the larger issues of community development and advocacy for the poor in its mission to help children and their families build sustainable futures.  

On May 6, UVMers helped to sort, inventory, and pack donated products (school supplies, medical supplies, books, clothing, seeds and tools, children's toys and personal care items) for shipment to World Vision programs around the world.  For more information about the mission of World Vision, go to www.wvi.org.

Special thanks to Chris O'Neill '97 and Sarah Peoples '72 for planning this event.
