"Our mission is to seek and to save the least, the last, and the
lost."
UMCOR’s two relief supply warehouses are asking United Methodists to
provide health kits that can be sent to earthquake-devastated Haiti.
“For people who are
feeling powerless in being able to help those in Haiti, providing
health kits is a tangible way they can make an immediate
difference,” said Kathy Kraiza, director of UMCOR’s relief supplies.
She estimates that hundreds of thousands of kits will be needed in
the days and months ahead.
The kits, valued at
about $12 per kit, contain everything from towels and washcloths to
sterile bandages and bar soap. They will be distributed to those who
have been forced to leave their homes as a result of the recent
disaster.
