Welcome to the Central Iowa Orphan Grain Train Page!
Did you know our facility has a rich history? Originally part of the West Marshall School District, it transformed into the Clemons Lutheran School until 2014. Since August 2015, it's been home to Orphan Grain Train, Inc. (OGT), where we've made an incredible impact.
In just 9 years, we've shipped over 20 loads of humanitarian supplies—everything from clothing to medical supplies—both locally and globally. 🌍 What’s truly remarkable? OGT’s Norfolk office handles all shipping logistics seamlessly, from finding recipients to arranging transportation by truck, rail, and ocean freight. 🙌
But we're more than just a shipping hub! We proudly open our modern cafeteria and gym for local events like holiday parties, fundraisers, town celebrations, and even wedding receptions—all for the simple cost of lights and heat. Not many small towns of just 140 people have these amenities! 🎉
A huge thank you to our amazing team and of course, to our dedicated packers and sorters who meet every Tuesday morning from 8:00 am till noon, along with our generous donors and supporters. We thank God for their dedication and willingness to serve others. 🙏
