The Forgotten Back-to-School Needs: Hygiene, Socks & Underwear
When we think about back-to-school season, pencils and backpacks come to mind—but basic hygiene items, socks, and underwear are just as important. These often-overlooked essentials help students feel clean, confident, and ready to learn.
Now through August 29, we’re collecting donations of full-size hygiene products, cleaning supplies, and new socks and underwear for kids of all ages. Your support helps students start the year with dignity and comfort.
Most-needed items include:
Shampoo · Conditioner · Body lotion · Deodorant (Men’s & Women’s)
Sanitary pads · Laundry pods · Tissues · Toilet paper · Dish soap
New socks & underwear for girls and boys (all sizes)
