| Thank
you to the NAIFA-North Dakota 2008 Convention attendees who
raised nearly $14,000 for Operation Aid for Afghanistan to
enable the
deployed military members in Kabul, Afghanistan to provide
humanitarian relief supplies via Camp Eggers Volunteer
Committee Relations (VCR) to orphanages and refugee camps in
and around Kabul, Afghanistan. The people of Minot AFB
and its surrounding communities have donated goods to
be shipped and distributed to Kabul. Items will be sent to
Camp Eggers VCR and distributed by military members to those
in need.
The money raised by the NAIFA-ND members is being used to
fund shipping for this effort. Members attending the
convention contributed between $50 and $5,000 to aid this
effort. The first shipment has been sent July 2008. Photos
and additional information will be posted as they become
available.
