About the event
Ladies, join us for a service project this Thursday (May 23rd) at our Women's Connection! We will be making Menstrual Hygiene kits for UMCOR. Anne Schoolcraft (BUMC Share CAML) will give us some information on UMCOR (United Methodist Committee on Relief) and how young women & girls are impacted by not having access to these necessities.
To make these kits possible we need the following donations:
Tampons - regular and super absorbency, unscented
Sanitary Pads - Long, Super, Ultra-thin - unscented
Wet Ones - travel packs
2 oz bottles hand sanitizer
Bath-size soap ( 3oz bar or larger), no Ivory or Jergen’s soap - do not remove from packaging
Flushable wipes - 42 count, unscented
UMCOR is very specific about what goes into the kits - please follow the list above.
Please consider donating items from this list for this important cause. Donations can be brought to the event or dropped off at church in a bin marked Women's Connection - UMCOR Menstrual Kits. If you'd like to make a monetary donation just drop a check off to church with UMCOR Menstrual kits in the subject line and it will be put toward supplies.
Hope you can join us for this fun and meaningful event!
6:30-8pm in the Fellowship Hall
