Survival Kits

Many victims of the recent devastation of Hurricane Ike were given 72 hour food pill survival kits to help sustain them since many were without money and the ability to obtain food. LifeCaps, a Utah based company, made the trip to Galveston Island with hundreds of free Survival Kits for the victims there. After the second day, LifeCaps had even more survival kits shipped in to the area due to the demand.

Daryl Stevenett, founder of LifeCaps watched as hundreds of people stood in line for a chance to receive a $200 gift card from WalMart courtesy of the Red Cross. Only 200 cards were to be given out so some people had been standing in line since 10 pm the night before. At 6 am it was dark and the weather was cold and very windy and many people had children that appeared to be sick, wearing flip flops with only thin blankets wrapped around them.

Stevenett said, “It’s hard to watch fellow Americans in so much pain and suffering.” It seemed that FEMA and the Red Cross were overwhelmed and there was really not enough money and help to go around.

Depend on no one to help you in an emergency, get prepared with survival kits and have provisions to help yourself and your own family.

Recently Dr. K. Lahiri – Director of Technical and Business Development for Rajat Pharmachem Ltd. met with LifeCaps own Daryl Stevenett to discuss how LifeCaps may be the solution for the Indian military, which has more than 10 million soldiers. One of the largest army’s in the world.

India is in a monsoonal region in which conditions are always unstable. Millions have died due to cyclones, floods, hurricanes, avalanches, landslides and other natural disasters in India’s harsh climate. The Indian military is often in a remote or desolate environment, where food is not obtainable.

The Indian military can see a variety of scenarios in which LifeCaps can come in handy. Especially in some parts of India when the failure of the monsoons creates a shortage of water, which in turn results with a less than average crop. The drought has triggered massive famine in India before and LifeCaps may be able to ensure that famine will never happen again.

The CIA estimates that India will have the 4th largest army in the world by 2015, and is the largest arms purchaser in the world. No wonder LifeCaps seems like an answer to a problem many of their soldiers will face while serving their country.
