UPDATE: Photo in comments. I went back less than three hours later to add more items, and almost everything we had placed in the blessing box was gone and replaced with mostly canned food. All that remained was cereal we had put in.
I’m honestly heartbroken. My daughter and I put a lot of time, effort, and money into gathering food, hygiene products, school supplies, hair accessories, makeup, and other small essentials to help fill this box with a variety of things people may need.
I’m reaching out to Humanity House tomorrow to ask if there are specific rules or if the box is food-only. If the items were removed because they weren’t allowed, I’m hoping to get them back so I can donate them directly to other families or organizations.
I truly just wanted these items to reach people who needed them. 💛
Cozy Cottage Cleaners gave this blessing box a whole lot of love today. 💛
We added food, cereal, baby items, bars of soap, liquid body wash, hair accessories, stationery/school supplies, makeup, storage cube racks, and lots of little extras.
Because sometimes kindness looks like groceries… and sometimes it looks like shampoo, soap, school supplies, or something small that makes life feel a little easier.
Take what you need, leave what you can, and keep the kindness going. ✨
