LWR Project:
Personal Care Kits Cleanliness may not actually be next to godliness, but it certainly makes a person feel more human. When families find their homes destroyed or must flee for their safety, soap and a towel rarely make the cut for what they can carry. Arriving in a refugee camp or other place of safety, they are scared, vulnerable and dirty from the travel. The simple items included in a Personal Care Kit provide much needed self-care, critical germ fighting, and the chance to regain dignity amidst situations of fear and uncertainty. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION! For the needy shall not always be forgotten, nor the hope of the poor perish forever. Psalm 9:18 |
