Operation Cover Up's Bay of Plenty would like to convey to the people of the Bay of Plenty, who following The Weekend Sun's article, supported our group with very generous donations of items to send to Eastern Europe.

Our area has contributed four wool bales of knitted goods and 11 boxes of other items. These are now on their way to their distribution warehouse in Rotterdam.

Our grateful thanks for your support. Well done Tauranga!

Elsa Pullenger, BOP coordinator, Operation Cover Up.
