Create Toiletry Kits for Homeless, Low Income Seniors, Veterans

Project:  A toiletry kit can be such a beautiful act of kindness to those in need and is a simple thing to do as an individual or with a group of people.  Create individual kits for someone who is homeless, a Veteran, or a low-income senior.

Where Should I Donate?  Choose an organization in your area that you feel has a need, it’s completely up to you.  It is recommended that you call around first to find out if they have specific needs or if the suggestions below are a good fit.  Homeless shelters or Veteran shelters are typically in need of these items, and you may also have a senior community center that provide free lunches to seniors whom might also benefit from such a kit.

Suggested Items:  

  • Bar of soap
  • Toothpaste and toothbrush
  • Deodorant, shampoo and conditioner
  • Razors, shaving cream and washcloth
  • Comb and/or brush
  • Mouthwash
  • Toilet paper
  • Paper towels
  • A hand-written card or note of encouragement*Items may be full size or travel size depending on the recipient. Seniors may prefer full size products vs. someone living on the streets may prefer travel size.
    *Packaging:  Place all items inside a sturdy grocery bag with handles or a large zip lock bag.

Dates/Times:  Coordinate the best day/time with the organization of your choice and drop off your assembled kits.

How many kits should I make?  Make any amount that is within your financial means.  Depending on the needs of the organization you may make anywhere from 1-50+ kits.
