Before any real work can be done we are all required to register with the local police station. This requires several pages of forms, as well as paying a fee at the Bank.

Back at the gym the real work of organizing several thousand boxes by region, family and/or group takes a long time. The delegation as well as our interpreters and drivers all pitched in to help. By the end of today we had all of the family boxes organized and many of them delivered.

Stay tuned!
