Health Kits 4 Haiti
Local churches are encouraged to put together Health Kits to UMCOR specifications. A Health Kit contains:
- 1 hand towel (15"x25" up to 17"x25", No kitchen towels)
- 1 washcolth
- 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 (toothpaste purchased by Sager Brown)
- Include a second dollar for shipping
Those kits can be taken to a collection site at a United Methodist Church in your district or sent directly to:
UMCOR West Office and Depot
1479 South 700 West
Salt Lake City UT 84104-1605
Do not attempt to ship directly to Haiti--let UMCOR do that. It should cost about $30 for 50 Health Kits to be shipped by UPS or FedEx to the Salt Lake City UMCOR Depot.
Thank you for helping those whose need is so great.
