Thank you for your work and your testimony. Your comments about how important it is to use local people and local supply chains reminded me of an article I read about how companies, that for example, donate a pair of shoes for every pair bought, ended up putting the local shoe makers/ sellers in the destination locale, out of business! You can’t compete with free. Or how the donated clothing pouring into parts of Africa completely disrupts the native/ local textile, and clothing manufacturers and retail sellers.

People and corporations have the best intentions but sometimes there are unforeseen consequences. It’s important to see these ASAP, and change the approach.

You are an inspiration to many!

It’s about more than just the food. You’ve shown the rest of the world how to spread comfort, respect and love to those in dire circumstances. Thank you and all of WCK!
