Emergency Supplies and Special Projects Needs
Last updated 5/21/07

These are some of the supplies on our list that might be found as surplus items at home. All of these items would be just fine if they are used as long as they are in good working order.  If necessary, we can repair holes in blankets or tents.  If you have any questions on whether something would be appropriate please contact Rochelle Long. We will be updating this list as we receive donations so if it’s on the list, we still need it.  Bring donations to the office and let them know it is for the emergency supplies.

Special Project – Kid Blankets

We are going to cut up some Kid sized blankets from fleece.  They will probably be around 36” x 50”.  We are not making enough for the whole school but we want to have a special supply of about 50 for special needs like the injured or especially cold.  We don’t have the fleece yet but we are on the lookout for cheap fleece over the next year.  It would be great to have someone take on this project of finding and cutting up the blankets.

Special Project – Triangular Bandages:

No donation is needed for this one, just time.  I need sheets cut into 100 triangular bandages.  I have the sheets.  I just need a few people who would be willing to cut them up.  A rotary cutter would make quick work of these.

Special project – Cribbing Blocks:

We need about 45’ of 4x4 posts that will be used to make 18” long cribbing blocks.  These can be recycled if they are in good structural condition and not rotten.  They are used to prop up large heavy items that have pined people after earthquakes.  We will take any amount of posts to add to our collection.  Email me so I can determine if they will work.

Gather those lunch meal toys and other small entertainment items!  We will hold a small toy drive next year of items to add to our emergency supplies.  So find a little box and make yourself a little collection.

Supplies that we really need:

• 10+  Sleeping pads – closed cell foam pads

• 12+  Blankets, wool, fleece & acrylic – not cotton  (Doesn’t need to be pretty!) 

• Old heating blankets would be fine as we can remove the heating wires.

• 3  Camping tents of all sizes

• 5  Pavilion Tents, 10'x10' or larger

Supplies that would be nice to have:

• 2  Large Pots for boiling water (8 quarts or more)

• 1  2 burner camp stove propane – (needs to work properly)

• 10  Knee Pads
