MARCH 2024 DONATION DRIVE: TOILETRIES
Toilet paper, tissues, deodorant, menstrual care products, razors, soap/shower gel/bodywash,
dental items (toothpaste, floss, toothbrushes), baby diapers and wipes
Why donation drives? Donation drives allow us to manage the intake of donations (especially if there are any food recalls) and provide frequently requested items that we cannot get from our food banks/local organizations that supply the pantry.
