Vision
The vision of the Container Project is to provide Bongolo with the supplies they need.
To best do this, please sign up for the items you will purchase or sew so that the hospital receives all it needs.
What
Each fall, the medical staff at the Bongolo Hospital compiles a list of needed items. Some can be made, like rolled sheet bandages, sterilization wraps, etc.
We have included many large medical items that the hospital needs. Perhaps your church can underwrite the cost of these or have connections with medical personnel who can donate them or have access to them.
How
- Read over the detailed list of needed items below or download the list.
- Use the online sign-up website and designate your commitment, including the quantity.
- Please Note: Some of the items on the sign-up website have a shortened description. You may need to refer back to these details when purchasing.
- Download the shipping instructions for details on when and where to send your items.
