The country of Kenya has OUTLAWED plastic bags (like ziplocs).
If we send items there, our only option is to use reusable (silicon) bags.
This is a recent change and we know it presents a bit of a financial challenge.
We hope folks will consider donating these bags in the coming months.
Drop by these locations during these hours to volunteer your time or to pick up items you can work on from home. We will gladly teach you the ways you can assist in our ongoing projects. These include:
-
cutting fabric into needed pattern sizes
-
washing and drying fabric at home to preshrink it
-
sewing shields/pads and drawstring bags
-
cutting ribbon for drawstrings
-
adding drawstrings to the carrying bags
-
sorting items for kits
-
assembling hygiene kits for shipment
