Fort Washington, PA - Clothes, personal items and hygiene products are sometimes a burden for the homeless. These things cannot be left outside because they can be easily stolen or ruined. In efforts to provide a means of warmth during the winter months and something to carry their personal items in, the Cosmo Cares team created a Duffel Bag Kit. The Duffel Bag Kit comprised of a blanket, vinyl pillow, umbrella, ear buds and hygiene products. The Duffle Bags were delivered to Bethesda Project’s Our Brothers Place located in center city.
Bethesda Project serves 1,400 individuals experiencing homelessness each year at 16 sites throughout Philadelphia. Any help is greatly appreciated during this pandemic. They accept donations of money, food, clothing and also have an Amazon Wish List. They are accepting cooked food delivered to their sites as well. They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner for the people that stay there. Most of their financial resources have been utilized during COVID. They have to pay for a cleaning company to come to their locations everyday to disinfect.
“So, join our Cosmo Cares team by donating to people who need our help, stated Natalie Scarantino Sadler, Project Manager. Our World needs more Compassion and Kindness.”
