Hygiene Kit Project
Hygiene Kit


On March 5, 2005, in Logandale, NV, my friend Bobbi and I headed up, and held an assembly day to put together kits for the Tsunami Victims, through LDS Humanitarian.  We ended up with about 750 kits to deliver to DI in St George who then shipped them to Salt Lake City for worldwide distribution.

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, thousands of kits are needed to help those victims get a small start towards recovery.  Please consider making these kits or sending some of the items needed, to LDS HUMANITARIAN.
