Pandaw Family Box 

The Pandaw Family Box was a great idea developed by our team. After our supply truck missions the team realised that it would be better to consolidate items into a single pack that could be given to each family. Each box containeed cooking and eating utensils, towels, clothing, Burmese medicines, water filters, basic foodstuffs , family mosquito net and personal hygiene kit. It all helps to get families started and feeling better. Each kit cost just under US$40. The first shipment of 300 boxes left for Laputta in June  on a barge hired by Merlin to take down their own supplies. The  team aive a Pandaw Family Box to each family visiting the ship for treatment. Later further supplies were sent down by truck and distributed by motor launch into remote villages that had not to date received any aid at all. We continued the supply of these right up till the end of 2008 and over 1,000 boxes were distributed.
