Homeless Hygiene Kits

Employee Name
Michelle Iglesias

For my second volunteer activity this year I participated in my church group's preparation of hygiene kits to be distributed to the homeless in downtown San Diego.  After organizing all of the donations from ourselves and other church members we each grabbed a gallon-sized zip bag and filled them with items one by one.  In the end, we created about sixty kits, some geared towards men, others for women, and some were generic in nature.  In all, we provided the homeless with toothbrushes, toothpaste, new socks, combs, hand sanitizer, wipes, soap, basic first aid supplies, and more.  Another group distributed the kits a week later.  We were grateful to be able to help the health and wellbeing of the homeless with our kits!
