- Infant formula (preferably powder, but any will do)
- New lightweight shoes (think Keds)
- Washcloths
- Towels
- Medical supplies (large band aids, sterile gauze, medical tape, ointment – think wound care)
- Sealed over the counter medication (with current expiration date)
- Sam’s Club or Walmart gift certificates (will be used to buys supplies in Florida to save on shipping costs)
Please only donate items on the list above, as we need to tightly focus our efforts at this urgent time.
If your group or business will be bringing a large number of items, it would be a great help if you can have the items boxed up (tightly packed), with like items in the same boxes, and labeled prior to drop off. This will help us expedite the process of shipping your donations. Please also consider collecting a monetary donation from your group or business to help us defray the shipping costs of donated goods, purchase additional supplies, and send additional aid workers to Haiti.
Thank you for all of your support!
