These things must be painstakingly removed and will delay the shipment. Do NOT include any personal notes, money or additional materials in the kits.Since strict rules often govern product entry into international countries, It is important that kits contain only the requested items – nothing more. All relief kits are carefully planned to make them usable in the greatest number of situations.All items included in kits must be NEW items.(Paper case boxes are a nice size.) We are trying to make it as easy as possible to collect, count and transport all of the kits.
If at all possible, please pack your kits in a box that can be handled easily by our women and write the total number of kits on the side of the box.
If your whole unit is collecting the kits, it will be okay to collect the money and put it all in one envelope to be turned in when you drop off your kits at Annual Celebration.
If you are bringing multiple kits, it is fine to just write one check in an amount sufficient to cover all of your kits. We need to collect those from you separately. Please do not put the money envelope inside of your UMCOR Relief kits. David joined the World Hope team in 2012 as a volunteer teaching. Please be sure to carefully follow all instructions about items to include, and do not include anything extra. MISSIONS David ODonnell has over a decade of experience in Eastern Europe/Western Asia. Important notes about preparing UMCOR Relief Kits to bring to our events: Celebrate someone special, brighten someone’s day, say thank you…send a Gift to Mission card! Gift to Mission cards will be available in the Program Resources room during Annual Celebration. With your gift, you honor someone, and you make a difference in the lives of women, children, and youth…around the world. Mission Giving supports the total program of mission carried out by United Women in Faith. Gift to Mission is one of the five channels of Mission Giving. Participating in this Hands-On Mission Opportunity will help your local unit to meet a Mission Today criteria.Ī Gift to Mission card honors someone in her or his name with an undesignated Gift to Mission of at least $5.00. Encourage others in your local unit and congregation to participate…even if they cannot attend Annual Celebration. We will be accepting any of the different UMCOR relief kits, and we will deliver the kits to our conference Mission Response Center for shipment to the UMCOR Sager Brown Depot. Because of continuing need around the world, UMCOR has expressed a need for all of the different relief kits.
