The Syracuse Women’s Commission is collecting health and beauty goods that will be given to Catholic Charities for the refugee resettlement program. The resettlement program sets up housing and assists with the transition of refugees arriving in Syracuse. The supplies are provided to refugees until they can get to the grocery or drug store, so there is an ongoing need. We ask that items be new, unscented or only lightly scented. Items can be placed in boxes located at the south entrance of the Maxwell School near the political science department or in the Noble Room of Hendricks Chapel. This drive will run through Thursday, Sept. 29.
Items Needed
• Toothpaste
• Toothbrushes
• Bar soap
• Lotion
• Baby powder
• Deodorant
• Shampoo and conditioner
• Dental floss
• Brushes and combs
• razors
