Hi everyone!
UPDATE- 2/19
Hey everyone, we met our first goal of $2700 and are now doubling our goal to $5300! Thank you so much for everyone who has contributed.
Thanks for your contribution.
We are launching a charitable effort as a pilot project to provide essentials kits (Project Blessing Bags) to those in need. This philanthropic initiative this year is for going to be for the homeless.
We will be collaborating with Eayikes (https://eayikes.org/), a nonprofit based in Los Angeles committed to creating community for adults and youth in addition to feeding the homeless. The bags will be distributed at the Peace and Healing Center at Creating Justice LA (https://www.creatingjustice.la/) in Skid Row.
As this initiative grows, the need for these Blessing Bags can span globally. Whether for homelessness or survivors of war and conflicts, we can be of great help!
This is a NON-PROFIT event. All of the expenses are open book.
The pricing of all the contents in the Blessing Bags are listed below in the link below:
