โAfter doing some community service a few weeks ago, i finally decided to go ahead and do something Iโve wanting to do for a few months now. I want to put together care packages for the homelessโฆย I knew for sure that this is what I wanted to do to give back to my community this holiday season.
When we caught wind of her campaign and goal, we knew that we had to throw our support behind her to help amplify her goal and message! Do you know how impactful care packages can be? Letโs do this!
The Care Packages
Shaina is raising money to put together roughly 30 care packages. Inside each care package, she is looking to provide:
- 2 pairs of socks
- a pack of Wet Ones
- toothbrush and toothpaste

- deodorant
- 2 or 3 pads
- 2 sandwiches
