S.H.I.P. Aid volunteers, Sister Mary Haupt and Chuck Haupt traveled to Lesotho to oversee the unloading and distribution of over 30,000 pounds of medical supplies, educational supplies, clothing, and children's toys that were donated to S.H.I.P. Aid. 

The pictures on this page were taken when the container was opened and the contents were emptied into a secure storage facility in Lesotho. Thank you to the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary (http://www.snjm.org/lesotho/) for all their help.
