Pallets of Sports Drink Bless Haitian Orphans

At a recent community meeting, our ministry president, Bill High, mentioned to the group about businesses being able to donate surplus inventory. One of the business owners has several pallets of sports drink that his business produced and sold that was getting close to the expiration date. The best solution for him was to donate the merchandise to SCCF, and we arranged to have it picked up by a local liquidator. The proceeds from the sports drink will go to benefit orphans in Haiti. The exciting thing about inventory donations is that everyone wins: the business owner, the liquidator, and the orphans in Haiti. Isn’t that the way God’s economy works, fueled by generosity, not consumer demand?
