Update from 10 September 2011 Yes, we are still looking for assistance. As we reported in 2010, we fell behind and will need volunteers on our staff to help. Totaling is going forth and everything from mid October 2010 to May 2011 is totaled but not posted. We are in need of additional help to prepare the pages for posting on the internet.
Update from 1 June 2011 Just to let everyone know that we will be diverting attention to our home repairs for a while. We had damage from the storms in mid April and in May to our home. Our internet is back.
Update from 5 April 2011 Many are asking if they should discontinue donating to the bases in Japan. All of our bases listed with OCP are south of Tokyo and south of the Koso Pennensula which is what protects Tokyo harbor and everything south of there from the Tsunamis. The earthquakes are east of the Oshika pennensula in northeastern Japan. The damaged Fukushima Daiichi plant is due west of the quake zone and more than 50 kilometers from Tokyo or the closest listed base at our site. Please continue to donate to these bases. How to locate your base and relate it to world events: http://militarybases.com/
Update from 19 March 2011 We are beginning to add donations totals to the web site. Please keep in mind that we will be doing batches by months. It takes quite a while to make one of these updates. October 2010 is the first month that has been totaled and it is being posted. If you filled out the "annual" box with your report in October, your totals for 2010 should be current as of that point. I have had to make a computer change. It took a while to save up but I now have it in hand. The old one only worked on a rare basis which has caused us to fall over a year behind. In the process the email issues we had will get worse for a short period (transfer) and then hopefully will be resolved. The major delays because of the volume control turning on and off the wireless and freezing the screen should no longer show up with the new machine. It will take another month to fully move everything over but we are working toward a resolution. In the mean time we should be able to keep up with new email questions forwarded to us. Update from 11 October 2011 OCP would like to welcome a new HQ volunteer. Hilda will be processing donations for us and boy do we need her help. We are still looking for a second processor and anyone interested should contact OCP at the listed phone number. Another great thing happened this week. We were unaware that some of our email was being siphoned off. It was actually caught by accident. We are going back to see what we can find that we missed. Over the next several months we may be answering email to the questions account that we did not realize were there. The problem was one I accidentlally created when I loaded Outlook on the computer to monitor the calendar from my iPhone. The account pulled in the iPhone email as well. Since it was not an expectation, I never looked for the mail there. One little mistake....

Update from 18 June 2010
Currently, there are only two volunteers at OCP HQ. I am the volunteer for everything except coupon processing. I have one volunteer for that at this time but please do not send us coupons at HQ, send them directly to the base. OCP is looking for help. If you are interested please read the "Help OCP" page. We have been posting that we had some family issues to resolve. The issue was the care of my father. He needed a lot of care beginning in mid 2009. I felt that his care was so important that we suspended our totaling and posting of donations. Remember that this is a project we run in our spare time with monies we earn personally. We kept the issue private while he was alive but he is no longer with us, and we miss him greatly. With his passing we will take a short time to recover and then again begin our program in ernest. Please, offer a prayer for him and we thank you for your patience with this time of our need. |
