Having clean and reliable socks and underwear ensures children can feel comfortable and confident as they navigate their day, whether they are in the classroom, on the playground, at home—anywhere.
Our goal this month is to distribute 5,000 pairs of brand-new socks and underwear to help children facing Clothing Insecurity feel secure. Help us reach our goal by donating through our Amazon Wish List: a.co/5rcIRhO

A short-sleeved shirt is a foundational clothing item, and children need multiple of them to be prepared for any given week. That's why we include multiple short-sleeved shirts in EACH package of clothing that we provide to children facing Clothing Insecurity.
Will you help us continue to meet children's everyday needs by donating short-sleeved shirts? Shop our Amazon.com Wish List today: a.co/5rcIRhO

Thank you to @diapernetwork and @huggies for your donation of more than 221,000 diapers! With this donation, we're supporting families across Massachusetts with the basic necessities they need to keep their babies clean, dry, and healthy.

Every package of clothing that we provide to children includes one common item: a short-sleeved shirt. It's one of the most basic items a child needs—whether serving as a base layer in the cold or a primary layer in the heat—and we need your help to increase our inventory.
By donating through our Amazon Wish List this month, you can help us get the shirts we need so we can assemble more packages of clothing and serve more children: a.co/5rcIRhO #WishListWednesday #EndClothingInsecurity #donate
