The Mo-Ark eCentennial Kiwanis Club is excited to name Convoy of Hope as our Anything on Wheels Charity.
Convoy of Hope is based out of Springfield, Missouri. They send food and relief supplies when disaster strikes.
In the United States… From the "crossroads of America" in Springfield, Missouri, Convoy of Hope sends truckloads of food and relief supplies from its World Distribution Center to cities and rural towns. Convoy trucks travel coast to coast, delivering goods used for events and disaster responses.
and around the world… Since Convoy of Hope was established, humanitarian aid has been delivered to hurting people in more than 130 countries. Convoy currently serves communities by empowering women, feeding kids, and helping farmers yield larger crops. A global network — which includes two regional offices in Europe and Australia — strengthens Convoy's ability to respond to natural disasters, extreme poverty, and hunger.
