The Feel Good Project

My name is Preston Kanter. I just finished 8th grade and will be a Freshman in August this year. I am working on a community service project for school. I am calling it “The Feel Good Project.” I see homelessness in Lodi as a social problem. I’m sure most people have seen or heard of the tent camp on Turner Road by Highway 99.

I plan to put together as many hygiene bags for the homeless as possible this Summer. I have coordinated with the Salvation Army on Sacramento Street in Lodi to pass out these bags on shower days. I hope my idea will help people clean up and feel more confident for job interviews targeting those who WANT to get help. I know this won’t solve all their problems but will help boost their self-esteem.

These Bags will include items like:

Clean new WHITE T-shirts & underwear

Toothbrush & Toothpaste

Shampoo & Conditioner

Soap & holder

Laundry detergent

Razors & Shaving Cream

Sunscreen

Nail Clippers/nail brush

Feminine Hygiene Products
