Gams Giving Back

Kathy Calvert (‘79) traveled with a church mission team to India where they planted over 1,000 trees to be used in redevelopment of areas ravaged by the Tsunami. The team also delivered clothing and supplies to a doctor who alone serves 2,000 people around his village and witnessed the Tsunami Livelihood Project in fishing villages where women learn sewing skills, creating “Tsunamika” dolls to help support their family.

Kathy is also serving as chairperson of the Wichita District United Methodist Habitat Build. Over 25 churches have come together to sponsor and build their second Habitat home in Wichita and will also volunteer on another build for a relocated Katrina family.

We are proud and blessed to have sisters like Kathy!
