The statewide donation effort to collect items for Afghan refugees at Camp Atterbury will end this week.

The eight Indiana National Guard armories, including the armory in South Bend, will stop collecting items at 4 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 10.

The outpouring of support has led to a surplus of items as more than 1.6 million items have been donated to refugees at Camp Atterbury since the statewide program began in September.

I get the feeling that we will all be donating to them every payday for the rest of our lives.
