Help Us Bring Dignity and Hope This Giving Tuesday!

Imagine this: You’re a parent waking up to the difficult choice of whether to spend your last few dollars on food for your children or soap to keep them clean. You want to provide a better life, but the struggle to meet even the most basic needs feels overwhelming.

This is the reality for 50% of low-income families. The lack of access to hygiene essentials doesn’t just affect physical health—it erodes confidence, self-esteem, and hope. Children find it harder to focus at school, and adults struggle to stay employed, all because they lack something as simple as soap or toothpaste.

At Sunlight Foundation NFP, we believe no one should have to make such impossible choices. Through our Hygiene Bank, we provide hygiene kits containing soap, lotion, deodorant, toothpaste, and toothbrushes to shelters and service organizations supporting at-risk and low-income populations, both sheltered and unsheltered. Hat, scarves, gloves, socks and other accessories are delivered to shelters in the winter.

Your generosity has already made a difference:

1,033 hygiene products disturbed so far this year 2024.
1,872 hygiene products distributed in 2023
172 individuals served in 2024.
206 individuals served in 2023

Through our Housing Sustainability Assistance Award financial awards are given to families transitioning from homelessness into their own home. Names are submitted from an organization working with the family. The funds can be used towards rent, groceries and other household necessities. This award gives families assistance and provides a fresh start for many families. This was a new initiative implemented in 2024. Six families were awarded $1,000 as they moved into their own home.

But the need is growing. Families in our communities are counting on us to help them regain their dignity and focus on building a better future.

This Giving Tuesday, you can be the light that helps someone take their first step toward stability and hope. Your gift will enable us to provide essential items that can change lives.

No gift is too small to bring Dignity and Hope. Together, we can create a world where everyone has access to the resources they need to thrive.

Donate to bring a little sunlight into the lives of those who NEED it the most.

P.S. Every contribution brings us closer to our vision: a society where every individual can live their best life. Thank you for being part of this journey.
