Personal Care items are needed by Men, Women, and Children. They are needed all year long. They are needed by those living out in the elements, they are needed by those getting a night here and there at the emergency shelters, and they are needed by those living temporarily in the family shelters.
You don't have to knit or crochet to be able to help in the manner. This is a great way to get EVERYONE involved.
PERSONAL CARE ITEMS NEEDED:
soap
shampoo
lotion
tooth paste
tooth brush
hair brush/comb
razors (men and women)
deodorant (men and women)
dental floss
chap stick
handwipes
hand warmers (those chemical things that can help keep people warm)
socks (primarily for men, but some needed for woman also)
mouthwash
sunscreen
hair conditioner
shaving cream
female products
tissues
One of the best ways to contribute personal care items without spending money is to save all the small bottles obtained when you travel from the hotel rooms, and or those samples you sometimes get in the mail.
