Packing a Health Kit
Thanks for the amazing generosity in preparing health kits for Haiti. The servant volunteers at the collection site asked that a picture of a health kit be shared as encouragement for creating a proper health kit. Proper packing is important! The inventory must be included as listed to insure transport and distribution. This also saves time in preparing kits for shipment.

1 hand towel (15” x 25” up to 17” x 27”)
