Hurricane Relief Efforts
Hurricane relief efforts in NC
are being supported through the regional office and Week of Compassion. Evacuees are being housed at Christmount at no charge to them, through Week of Compassion. Monies will also be used for needs in the eastern part of the state. Make checks out to First Christian with Week of Compassion-NC in the memo line. Please be generous.
The regional office is supporting clean up through kits consisting of
-1 gallon buckets with resealable lid
-scouring pads
-rubber gloves
-sponges
-scrub brushes
-liquid laundry detergent 50 oz or 25 oz,
-liquid dish soap 16-28 oz,
-12-16 oz of household cleaner that can be mixed with water (no sray bottles please ex. bleach),
-48-50 pack of clothes pins
-clothesline 50ft or 100ft
-dust masks
-work gloves with leather palm
-24-28 heavy duty contracter trash bags
-6-9 oz of non-aerosol insect repellent
They are also collecting baby diapers and wipes. Rev. Sue will ferry these items to the regional office October 5th. Because the devastation has limited supplies in the east, it is better to purchase these items here.
