[R-390] Cardboard shipping box

[Steve Toth]

On this topic:  I still have an R-390A double walled shipping box I purchased from Dan Arney down in Texas a number of years ago before he sold off his huge military radio inventory.  That box is a rugged double walled box that has been across country and back twice transporting R-390A's and is still very serviceable.
My understanding from Dan was that he was purchasing those heavy duty shipping boxes from a charity organization that employed blind individuals to make the boxes there in Texas (not sure if my information is correct on the source, but that's what I remember Dan telling me on the phone).
Would anybody happen to know the source name and contact info for the organization Dan used to source the boxes?
