These ziplock bags, or packets, contain any of the following items: disposable razors, trial sized shampoos and conditioners, several band-aids, a comb, soap, tooth paste, tooth brushes, nail clippers, socks, or gloves. Your volunteer group can assit MTKO by putting together the packets or donating items that can be put in the packets.
