COVID-19 Hygiene Kits for the Bay County Homeless
Donation protected
My name is Henry Jiang, and I am a high school student at North Bay Haven Charter Academy. Like many others preparing for quarantine during the COVID-19 outbreak, I researched online about the virus in order to stay safe. According to the Center of Disease Control website, it is important to wash hands with soap often, wear cloth face coverings in public, clean and disinfect surfaces often, and stay at home as much as possible.
After reading this, I thought of the homeless people in our community. They don't have a home to stay at, they can't wash hands with soap as often as others, many of them don't have access to face masks, and they are much more likely to catch the disease than other people as a result. So, I decided to make hygiene kits to help the members of our community in need.
Each hygiene kit contains three face masks, two bottles of hand sanitizer, a bar of soap, and a packet of alcohol disinfecting wipes. All of the items are disinfected before packaging into bags and are handled with gloves. Your donation will go towards the supply costs of the hygiene kits. Each kit costs about 5 dollars to make, and I plan to distribute them to homeless shelters and centers around Bay County. I would be greatly appreciative to you for your contribution to my project.
