CWS ASKS HELP REPLENISHING "GIFTS OF THE HEART" KITS SUPPLY

 NEW YORK - Church World Service is asking help to
replenish its supply of "Gifts of the Heart" kits - the
school, health and baby kits that it ships to people in need
worldwide.

School kits are most needed at this moment.  Shipments
of school kits slated for later this summer to the Middle
East and the Balkans are in jeopardy because recent
shipments to Sierra Leone, in West Africa, and earlier
shipments to the Balkans have diminished supplies.

For information on the contents of the kits, please
call 1-888-297-2767 toll free, or visit the CWS Web site at
www.churchworldservice.org.
