Lutheran World Relief Disaster Kits!

Many thanks to Jim Dodrell, our Mission Team and everyone who contributed time and supplies in putting together two big boxes of relief kits.

With Pakistan, Haiti and other recent major disasters in the world, supplies were low and YOU responded to the need.

Thank You!

Review the General Assembly Instructions before collecting items for the health kits.

Include the following items in each health kit:

• One hand towel, dark color recommended
• One washcloth, dark color recommended
• One bath-size bar (4 to 5 oz.) of soap, any brand, in its original wrapping
• One adult-size toothbrush in its original packaging
• One sturdy comb, remove packaging
• One metal nail file or nail clippers with file attached, remove packaging (do not substitute cardboard emery boards for the file)
• Six Band-Aids® (or similar brand), preferably 1/2" to 3/4"; secure together with a rubber band

Do not add other items or leave out any of the items listed. All items should be new and in good condition. Wrap smaller items in the washcloth; wrap washcloth and remaining items in the towel and tie securely with ribbons or yarn. Do not enclose the kit or any of its contents in plastic bags.

Project Comfort Fund Note: LWR's approximate cost to handle and ship one LWR health kit overseas is $2.65 (includes the cost of toothpaste to go with the health kit)
