DONATE: Care Kits
Care Kits include new travel sized hygiene items and non-perishable snacks for our neighbors living in the river. R.A.F.T. team members distribute Care Kits to our neighbors experiencing homelessness and use them as an engagement tool to build relationships.
Below are suggested items for women’s and men’s care. The most useful way to assemble and distribute these items is in 1-gallon plastic bags. You are welcome to personalize kits with note cards, but we ask that you refrain from including personal contact information.
Women’s Hygiene Items: Please include essentials such as dental items (i.e. toothbrushes, toothpaste, floss, and mouthwash), anti-bacterial wipes, feminine hygiene products (i.e. pads, tampons, deodorant, razors, and shaving cream).
