SUMMARY:Pack Hygiene Kits for Stone Soup Project

  in the Waukesha Community who are facing homelessness. \nActivities\nWe w

 eant to uplift individuals who receive the kits. \nAfterward\, we will wor
 k together in an assembly line to pack bags with travel-size toiletries\, 
 snacks\, and basic first aid supplies. These hygiene kits will be distribu
 ted to individuals during dinner service at the Stone Soup Project\, suppo
 rting community members experiencing homelessness.\n\nImpact\nParticipatin
