Hygiene Poverty is experienced by 40% of our community.  It’s not just the smelly students at high school, but people not being able to get and stay clean and therefore losing their jobs, being bullied at school, not being able to take their children to day care because they


can’t afford diapers, or having to reuse toilet paper!  After food it’s the most asked for item.


 


Alternatively, there is still time to order from our wish list on Amazon . Details in the flyer below.
