How Can I Help
"Katrina" Survivors

Dear Fellow Kingdom Builders

Our family members, friends and neighbors from Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama need our help. Their needs are enormous.  Along with our prayers they are in need of basic necessities.  Please bring non-perishable “ready to eat” food items and toiletries to our South Main location 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 9:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. on Sunday.  Food items should not require cooking and have easy-open tops that do not require a can opener.  Toiletries should include basic care items.  Specific items include:

FOOD—pop-top canned meats (tuna, spam, Vienna sausage, sardines), pop-top canned vegetables and fruits, bottled water, no-fat dry milk, cereal (individual boxes) noodles (in a cup), pudding cups, crackers, peanut butter, jelly, snack crackers, snack cookies, juice boxes, oatmeal (individual packets) etc.

TOILETRIES—toothbrushes, tooth paste deodorant, soap bars, wet wipes, diapers, baby powder, feminine products, perfume, cologne, shaving cream, razors, etc.

We are also coordinating volunteers and collecting cash donations.  For more information about how you can help, please call 713-551-8750 or 713-551-8732 beginning Friday, September 2, 2005.  PLEASE DO NOT CALL THE MAIN CHURCH NUMBER.  

We encourage you to give generously of your resources, whether time or money.  A special account has been established. Please make your checks out to Windsor Village United Methodist Church and write “Katrina Victims” on the memo line.  We are asking that cash donations be brought to our 6000 Heatherbrook Drive location. 

Let us do all we can to help make a difference in Jesus’ Name.
