Relief Supplies

	Community Lutheran Partners has two programs in place to help households recover from the effects of flooding and other disasters.





		One+Plus Kits! A First Step for Disaster Relief in the WV-WMD Synod

When disasters such as flooding strikes a community, relief efforts arrive through many agencies. CLP has found a way to effectively contribute to these efforts. One+Plus kits are designed to fill the gaps in existing disaster relief efforts.
Our guiding example is this: Many times when relief efforts pour in, there is plenty of canned food for distribution, but no one has a can opener.

The CLP One+Plus kit is designed around this idea: Don’t forget the can opener!


	One+Plus! Contents


	A sturdy can opener Utility candles Wooden matches Pencils/pens Pencil sharpener Spiral notebook Rubber bands Paper clips Package of sterile wipes Pair of Scissors Pair of rubber gloves


	Optional materials to fill the box: Dishcloth/tea towel scrub sponge scotch tape sharpie pen small sewing kit fingernail clippers feminine products clothes pins duct tape Your own comforting touches


	Remember to secure the kit with clear plastic tape to help keep it closed during transportation.
