The Eruption of Mount Kelud

We've had some interesting experiences since living in Indonesia...earthquakes and volcanic eruptions being two of them!  It was such a rewarding experience to be able to assemble and then deliver humanitarian supplies to the people impacted by the volcano!

Assembling 1500 humanitarian kits....toothbrushes/toothpaste, soap, combs, face masks, towels, prayer skirts, sardines just a few of the items in each bag.  Also took cases of water, diapers, women's hygiene necessities, food items...

Stopped for breakfast...rice and beef

Just arrived in Malang to join with those members to deliver the supplies
