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.

Grace is hosting a drive for the supplies needed for Lutheran World Relief Personal Care Kits from April 15 through April 30. Our Stitching By Grace ministry will then assemble these kits to be prepared to be sent around the world to those in need. All items should be new and in good condition and placed in the collection containers in the Narthex.
