Hygiene Care Kits Project

When people’s basic needs are met, their self-esteem is boosted and they are better able to focus on reaching self-sufficiency. The kits are given to individuals and homeless families who come to facilities of direct service providers, often without anything to meet their basic needs. Providing hygiene items allows individuals and families to balance their budgets and allows them to have enough money to pay for important items such as rent, utilities, and food.  

The Goal

We want to deliver 100 kits by Friday November 20th!
