Pelzer Joins the Volunteer Recovery Work
Pelzer complimented College Heights for the “military precision” of its donation center.
“People check in at one end, and within an hour, they leave at the other, loaded with nonperishable food, medical and hygiene supplies, baby needs and more,” the article says. “Sometimes the turnaround time is even less.”

“This really energizes me,” he said. “What a blessing this is for me. If I lived in this community, I would be a member of this church.”
