Volunteers make hygiene kits at Ocean Pines church

By Cindy Hoffman Staff Writer

(May 12, 2023) The United Women of Faith chapter at the United Methodist Community Church at Ocean Pines assembled hygiene kits recently to be distributed wherever there is need.

These kits include a hand towel and washcloth, soap, bandages, toothbrush, comb, and nail clippers, all placed in a plastic zip lock bag.

The items were all donated.

Edible

“Some donated items and others donated money. The extra money goes to the United Methodist Community on Relief to be distributed throughout the country and the world to areas of need,” Linda Baker, the project coordinator, said.

“There are United Women of Faith chapters around the county and the world,” Baker said. “Our goal is to help to meet the spiritual and physical needs of women and children.”
