Hygiene products shouldn’t be a choice families have to make; but for too many, they are. 🧼
Hygiene poverty is the inability to afford basic personal care items like soap, toothbrushes, deodorant, toothpaste, period products, and many more.
At MA-CEAL, the Community Engagement team works alongside communities and organizations like Hope and Comfort to increase access to essential hygiene products. This includes bringing pre-packaged hygiene kits to distribute at events and sharing directly to the communities we serve. 💙
