As a cold gray winter day began, more than 50 enthusiastic volunteers gathered at Chet’s Car Care Center in north Madison on Saturday to load boxes of medical and school supplies onto a semi-trailer headed for Honduras.
Many more hours had been spent during prior months boxing and wrapping the material, and designating where in the Central American country it should go so that volunteer teams arriving in February and March can provide free services for 4,000 to 5,000 patients.
