Help The Salvation Army serve the homeless community in San Francisco by preparing hygiene kits for distribution at a large scale homeless outreach. These hygiene kits provide essential supplies for people who are homeless or are low income.
By using gently supplies donated by major hotels in San Francisco, we are able to both help avoid wastage and meet an essential need. We need approximately 1500 kits created before our large outreach in mid-May. Please note, we are limited to 8 people at a time due to space restrictions.

Description
The Salvation Army was established in London in 1865, and since 1883 has been serving the San Francisco Bay Area, offering practical support, spiritual comfort and a critical safety net to people in need. The safety net is funded in part by donations from the Red Kettle Campaign which started in San Francisco in 1891. Nearly 600,000 San Franciscans receive assistance from the Army annually through a range of social services; clothing and shelter for the homeless, food for the hungry, opportunities for underprivileged children, alcohol rehabilitation, transitional housing, nutritional and housing support for seniors and relief for disaster survivors. For every dollar donated to The Salvation Army, 82 cents is used to support those services in the 16 facilities throughout San Francisco and South San Francisco communities.
