the packaging be? How effective should the packaging be? How will the instructions be?

My Proposal:

I selected this area because it has generally been neglected as catering to in terms of various facilities being near and functional for the people that work/visit the theater. They lacked First aid kit which was highly need when they get injuries like Deep and minor cuts.

My preferred materials included a plastic corrugated sheet or a recycled PVC pipe.
The total cost to make a kit box using a corrugated sheet was Rs. 250, however my later selected material (PVC pipe) costed nothing other than for its cutting and process, shown below.
The total amount required to make this emergency kit is Rs. 928.
