First-Aid Kit and a Donation

Total Time Needed:
1 Hour

Margaret Connor of West Lake Hills, Texas, sent us this truly giving idea. Her three kids each chose a charity, to which donations were made in their teachers' names. First-aid kits were a clever way to deliver this news. The teachers, reports Margaret, "appreciated the charitable donations and the usefulness of a first-aid kit."

Materials
  • Pencil
  • Metal candy tin
  • Two 4- by 6-inch index cards
  • Scissors

  2. Trim the cards just inside the lines to make them a little smaller than the box.
