Support Other in Crisis in a Tangible Way!
Thousands of Crisis Care Kits (CCKs) are made, stored, and distributed globally each year. CCKs are made by Nazarene volunteers for their brothers and sisters around the world who are recovering from devastating natural and man-made disasters. These kits are a tangible way for people to get involved in the disaster response process.
Each CCK is filled with basic hygiene products that provide a touch of comfort in the wake of life-altering catastrophes. They have been distributed after hurricanes and tsunamis, wildfires and earthquakes. They provide a glimmer of hope and a message of God’s love in a time of need.
Nazarenes have been very generous in collecting, packaging, and shipping Crisis Care Kits. However, global circumstances of the recent past have left warehouses nearly empty with fewer than 300 remaining. There is a desperate need to replenish the store of ready CCKs to ensure a swift response to any potential disasters in the near future. Your gift of CCKs will be matched up to ten times through a matching grant. That is, your one Crisis Care Kit can be multiplied into ten!

Place all items into a 2 gallon zip-lock bags.
BAGS CAN BE PROVIDED BY THE CHURCH!
