 E-Connection June 5, 2017 |
|
| |
During the month of June, the Good News for Children's Coin Jar will be directed to UMCOR Cleaning Buckets. Buying a bucket and filling it cost about $35. A more complete content list is at the Connection Center. Buckets made by WV UM's came in really handy during last year's flood. Items include: 5 gallon bucket with re-sealable lid to put everything in, one 50 oz. or two 25 oz. liquid laundry detergent, 12-16 oz liquid cleaner, 16-28 oz. dish soap, 50 clothespins, one 100 ft. or two 50 ft. clothes lines, 7 sponges (not cellulose), 24 roll trash bags (33-45 gal.), 18 cleaning wipes, 1 can air freshener, 1 insect-repellant spray, 2 pairs kitchen dishwashing gloves, 1 pair work gloves, 5 scouring pads, 1 scrub brush, 5 dust masks. When packing, place liquids in first; take other items out of their packages and pack them in. Be sure the lid fits securely.
You can get most of the items at the Dollar store and the bucket from either Tractor Supply or Home Depot. If you have ever been in a flood, you realize how important these items are. Take a friend with you and even split the cost! Your little bit can make a big difference.
Grace & freedom,
Ellis
