Palo Alto Libraries and Downtown Streets Team are hosting a Hygiene Kit Drive to gather and distribute essential hygiene supplies to unhoused individuals and families. Make a difference by donating new, unopened travel-sized hygiene items at any Palo Alto library location during business hours through August 31. Accepted items include toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, shampoo, hand sanitizer, wipes, lotion, sunscreen, crew cut socks, water, and backpacks.
FPCPA will collect for this drive in a box inside our usual DST Food Closet basket in the Narthex. Please deliver your items by August 29 so that we can take them to a library that day.
