ORGANIZATION: Simpson Housing Services, Inc.

Help provide Simpson Housing’s Emergency Homeless Shelter with basic self-care supplies that everyone deserves! Each night 66 single adults sleep at the shelter and we offer basic needs for everyone on their first night, then throughout their stay. These basic supplies are crucial to making sure that guests feel comfortable, dignified, and healthy.

Many groups will choose a few specific items that they will collect, others will advertise a full list of all supplies needed. Items to collect are:

  • Products for natural/textured hair
  • Travel Size Lotion
  • Combs and Brushes
  • Personal size bar soap and body wash
  • Toothpaste
  • Eye Masks
  • Nail Care Kits
  • Shower Shoes

You can view example items on our Amazon Charity List https://smile.amazon.com/hz/charitylist/ls/1Q4DOAP1WID30/ref=smi_ext_lnk_lcl_cl
