When the Gorge Heroes Club sent out an urgent request for assistance late Friday evening, Wasco County Commissioner Rod Runyon was the first to respond. Not only did Commissioner Runyon donate to GHC to help with the purchase of a stove for our adopted Marine unit - he is also challenging all other Gorge Public Officials to meet or beat his donation!
GHC is happy to report that we received word this afternoon from Hood River Mayor Author Babitz that GHC will be the recipient of this month's Hood River City Council stipend's. These funds will be used for the purchase of dual fuel stoves - care package food/hygiene items and shipping costs.
Thank you both! To find out more about our urgent needs request and how you can help - please see our Saturday, March 12, 2011 post titled:
