I went to a presentation last week that my friend did about putting together 72hr kits in 12 steps. The idea was that each month to add one item to the pile until you were done. I like it. The reference she used was from the blog www.preparedlds.blogspot.com I have used this outline with permission of that site administrator.
I was so excited about how easy it could be to build a kit for each member of my family.
Here are the 12 steps that can be completed in any order:
1: Bedding
2: Shelter
3: Clothing
4: Personal items
5: Activities
6: Food
7: Food Prep
8: Emergency Items
9: Important Papers
10: Money
11: Container
12: Additional Emergency Supplies
Everyday I will post suggestions on each of these steps. Please remember that these are ideas, and you need to evaluate what your family's needs are. There are no right and wrong answers. What works for your friend next door may not work for you, and that's ok.
Just to remind you, I am a Thrive Independent Consultant, so I will be promoting Thrive Products.
I am here to help you (and me) to get ready for emergencies and to follow advice and counsel to get ready. We never know when there will be natural disasters or loss/change of job causing economic hard ship. I like to live by the thought, "if you are prepared you shall not fear".
