COAST invites community groups and businesses to participate in a supply drive for Day of Caring on September 16th and throughout the Fall.
Guests of the shelter arrive, often from the wet and cold, with very little. You can be a part of welcoming shelter guests by collecting small personal items like shampoo, soap and deoderant, These supplies will be placed in a self-care bag and given to each shelter guest. This simple caring gesture goes a long way toward helping shelter guests feel welcome and cared for.
Personal Care Items:
Deoderant
- Hand sanitizing gel
- tooth paste
- soup
- shampoo
- tooth brushes
- lotion
- Women’s personal care items
