Escorted by numerous police cars, Hunger Strike Force Director Steve O'Grady slowly drove the tractor-trailer into the secured area around the World Trade Center's ruins this afternoon. The HSF truck holds 18.5 tons of blankets, nutritional bars, drinks, adhesive bandages, medical kits, and toiletry kits to be distributed to thousands of relief workers in the surrounding area.

Riding shotgun, OBI's New York Center leader Jim Esposito and Steve felt like they were "observing God's hand move when they were allowed to park in the secure area", just ten blocks away from the epicenter. Volunteers quickly distributed the items to exhausted relief crews. While on their way to the distribution stop, Steve observed the 53-story Liberty Plaza buckle and rescue workers scatter!

In addition to sending the relief supplies, OBI continues to partner with a vast network of churches and individuals in a variety of ways.
