<div>Since 2018, I’ve hosted an Annual College Essentials Basket Giveaway to support first-year college students who are heading to campus—many for the first time in their families. Each year, I create customized laundry baskets filled with everyday college necessities to help ease the financial burden and remind students that their community believes in them.

<div>Why I Do This:

</div>

<div>I started this giveaway because I know firsthand how tough it can be to start college without the basics. When I was preparing for my own college journey, my family couldn’t afford everything on my dorm checklist—but thanks to a few generous people who stepped in, I made it. Now, I’m paying it forward.

<div>What’s Inside Each Basket:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>-Twin XL sheet set and comforter

<div>-Shower caddy &amp; toiletries

</div>

<div>-School supplies (notebooks, pens, folders, etc.)
