MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas -- "The Sooner, the better,” a grassroots community outreach project was initiated in response to the desperate need in Moore, Oklahoma after a devastating tornado tore through the town. Sooner Container in Conroe, Woodlands Online, and the Conroe/Magnolia/Spring/Tomball Today teams collected essential items to be trucked up to Moore, Oklahoma this week.

Many, many thanks to the community and businesses who teamed together to help make the outreach project a huge success. Pallets of water, along with boxes filled to the brim with toiletries, insect repellent, disposable diapers, wipes, formula, granola bars, baby blankets, cribs and even mattresses filled up an 18 wheeler headed straight to Moore.

Adams Transfer & Storage Co. was kind enough to lend a much needed helping hand too; Bobby Adams provided a truck to transport items from Woodlands Online up to Sooner Container. A big thanks to Sooner Container truck driver, Earl Musgrove, accompanied by warehouse team member, Sam Salazar who will deliver the load to a Goodwill distribution warehouse earmarked for the Moore, Oklahoma community.

Thanks to the overwhelming support from the community, supplies for our neighbors to the north are in route. The entire staff and families of Woodlands Online, Conroe Today, Sooner Container and Adams Transfer & Storage Co. thank you for the outpouring of donations.
