Help us build Heath Kits!
The United Methodist Committee on Relief is well known for quickly being on-site in the event of natural or man-made disasters, bringing supplies and a comforting presence in Christ's name to the victims.
Our denomination maintains a large warehouse (Sager-Brown) in Louisiana stockpiling various supplies, including clean-up bucket kits and these Health Kits. At Salem we assemble "kits" according to UMCOR's specifications and ship them to the warehouse where they await our next response to people's needs in a disaster.
