Assemble Winter Care kits to the homeless living in homeless camps in downtown Sam Jose.

Hygiene Care Kits

Often many of us take basic toiletry items for granted. Our organization provides hygiene items to those suffering from homelessness. One of the most requested items we receive are basic toiletry items (toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, body wipes, hand sanitizer, body wipes, bottled water sock and more).

Over the last year, we were able to distribute over 10,000 hygiene, toiletry, and clothing items to the most vulnerable in our community. While good personal hygiene is well known to reduce the risk of infectious disease and improve mental health, as well as improve self-confidence among people experiencing homelessness, not enough attention and resources are allocated.
