HAITI RELIEF HEALTH KITS
For individuals or groups that want to contribute to basic necessities,
UMCOR requests that the following NEW items be placed in a sealed one-gallon plastic bag:
· 1 hand towel (15” x 25” up to 17” x 27”). No kitchen towels.
· 1 washcloth
· 1 comb (large and sturdy, not pocket-sized)
· 1 nail file or fingernail clippers (no emery boards or toenail clippers)
· 1 bath-size bar of soap (3 oz. and up)
· 1 toothbrush (single brushes only in original wrapper, no child-size brushes)
· 6 adhesive plastic strip sterile bandages
· $1.00 to purchase toothpaste
(NOTE: Toothpaste is purchased in bulk to be added to health kits to ensure that the product does not expire before they are sent.)
Because the emergency kits are carefully planned to make them usable in the greatest number of situations and strict rules govern product entry into international countries, UMCOR requires that the kits contain only the requested items – nothing more.
Please bring these to church and place them in the box in the Narthex.
We will also need $1 per box sent, so if you’d like to leave a small donation for that, it is appreciated. Just place it in an envelope with your kit.
