Total worth with shipping $2,015,000.00

• $24,000 ($12,000 each) for two (2) containers from Operation Compassion of new clothing and shoes (100,000 pairs of shoes, 100,000 sets of clothes). The containers are already paid for and this is the shipping costs only.

After speaking with the donor, we learned that the actual value of the 280,000 meals is ~$60,000 thousand.

This slightly reduces the over all Total Impact to $3,623,000.00

Given the recent event of price matching up to $28,000.00, the current situation is:

TOTAL COST: $28,000.00

TOTAL IMPACT: $3,623,000.00
