Convoy of Hope delivers relief to New York, New Jersey

On July 1, Convoy delivered 40,000 pounds of products, including sports drinks, milk, soup, juice, pork and beans, cleaning supplies and toilet paper, to Hancock, N.J. Workers canvassed an eight-mile radius for 13 hours.

Convoy left again on Wednesday for Binghamton, N.Y., with two loads of relief supplies that included food, water, bleach and cleaning supplies.

The Binghamton-Hancock region received 17 inches of rain in a four-day period last week. Much of the area was placed under a boil order, and evacuees were prevented from returning home for several days.
