The baby kits we take include a receiving blanket; diaper, t-shirt,
washcloth, and skin care products. We have also included a
brush or comb, infant toothbrush, and plastic canvas crosses.
These kits help the health care workers in their effort to immunize
infants in surrounding villages. The mothers will receive a baby kit
if they bring the babies in for care. The fabric used for the
clothing has been found at Wal-Mart on the dollar rack. A soft
t-shirt knit will make a blanket and shirt. The diapers are made of
flannel. The items needed for these kits are the small bottles of
baby skin care, including baby wash, baby oil, baby powder, and
baby shampoo. We have purchased large quantities of these
products and filled our own bottles. Anyone having empty 2 oz or
4 oz bottles, we can use! We have a few side projects for the trip
in 2007. We have been exposed to such extreme poverty; the
children do not have shorts or underwear. This includes children
up to 10 or 12 years old. We are asking for donations of
sneakers, shorts, and underwear. These items will be taken to
the village we work in. The local pastor will be able to distribute
these items to the children. The items do not have to be new. The
cost of transporting the items is $100.00 for 70 pounds of goods.
A small monetary donation with the items would be greatly
appreciated.
