Winter-Covid Care Packs for the Homeless
Donation protected
Getting this fundraiser going to put together 50 care packs for the local Homeless people in Reading.
Each pack will contain: a bottle of Hand Sanitiser, a Blanket, Face Masks (for Covid not exfoliation), Cereal/Granola Bars, Multi-Vitamins (hopefully have a positive immune effect), Body Wipes, Dry-Snacks, Socks, and Gloves.
Some of the packs will also include Dog Food and Sanitary Towels, distributed as needed.
50 packs will cost £880. Some of you clever clogs will have worked out that each pack costs £17.60. That's right! For the price of a Domino's or your monthly OnlyFans subscription you could really help in making a difference to someone's winter.
The backstory to this is a conversation I had with a homeless dude while waiting for a Nando's pick up. He was pretty concerned about the winter and how he/his buddies will get through it, especially now that footfall is lower in the Town. He also mentioned a concern about sickness/colds/flus/Covid.
We spoke about the kind of items that could help and he specifically named the above. He estimated that there is 50 or so homeless people in and around the town centre.
I've never been a believer in big charities, so let's do this ourselves. Any donation is appreciated but as the above says £17.60 is the price for one pack ;).
