First Aid Kits

Global Health Ministries is excited to annouce a new project for support. First Aid Kits! The kits are produced at the GHM warehouse by our volunteers and filled with much needed first aid supplies drawn from what is donated from local hospitals and medical distributors.

GHM volunteers produce two types of First Aid Kits:

  • Basic - Used by trained village health workers.
  • Deluxe - "Doctor's kit", which contains additional emerency supplies for use at partner hospitals and health centres.

The kits are sent via travelers or are included in container shipments to our partners around the world. Although they are mostly filled with items already available in the GHM warehouse there is some cost involved for the purchase of the tool box, specific medical supplies unable to be obtained via donation, and shipping costs for the kits.

Your donation of $15 per kit will be a BIG help and very much appreciated. It will help us produce more kits and get them into the "hands that heal."

Please consider a gift torward this new and exciting project. With your prayers and financial support we will be able to continue this important project.

UPDATE! GHM recently sent First Aid Kits to El Salvador. Download a PowerPoint (with narration) that celebrates this project and impact these kits can have on the healthcare of our brothers and sisters in this beautiful country!
