"Blessing Bags" will help the Homeless have better hygiene and therefore better health. In the period of several days, hundreds of Blessing Bags were distributed to the Homeless from 87th to 1st St. Each bag contained 2 pairs of socks, washcloth, shampoo, conditioning, tooth brush, tooth paste, razor, soap, deodorant, comb, chapstick, hand sanitize and a list of Local Resources, including medical, mental help, drug & alcohol recovery, workplace agency, etc. All in a gallon size ziploc so they don't get wet.
