Essential Hygiene Kit & Feed a Family for 1 Month; £37

Something happens. Something terriblePeople attack you and hundreds of other people you know
You have to leave home - run away
You end up exhausted in a refugee camp
A crowded pain-pit
Do you even feel as though you still have a life?
Have you any dignity or self esteem left?
Every meal is a struggle - even cleanliness on the most basic level is difficult
What if?


These pictures are all from Darfur - people crushed, blighted, and semi-forgotten by the rich in the world who could help them.
Pray for them.


This present isn't much in the grand scheme of things - but it could mean a huge amount to a family somewhere who needs it. Hygiene essentials and food for a month. Simple, basic - and I can't imagine ever feeling delighted to receive it. How decadently rich and lucky I am.
