Veterans Center director's daughter organizes clothing drive for displaced military and veterans
When David Klassy, Minot State University Veterans Center director, and his wife, Donita, returned from visiting their daughter Misty Lundgren in Auburndale, Wis., they brought back a 6-by- 12 trailer packed with clothes and blankets. Through St. John’s Lutheran Church, Lundgren organized a clothing drive for the families of military members and veterans displaced by the Minot flood.
"Auburndale is very supportive of the military," Klassy said. "I was amazed. It was more than we could fit in the back of our car."
On July 15, Klassy delivered the new and gently used clothing and blankets to the Airmen and Family Readiness Center on Minot Air Force Base.
