The San Jose Region began the work of funding, procuring, inventorying, building, and distributing hygiene kits to the homeless since March of 2020. Today's event was our 30th round of building big bags of the kits from the pallets of materials which will then move to the next step on the value chain of distribution directly to the needy. A major milestone was reached today in that we have now exceeded the creation of over 70,000 hygiene kits since March 2020. This signature work of the San Jose Region has a very high participation rate and is consistent with our core mission of helping the poor and the sick.

"We have achieved an impressive milestone today on our 30th round of hygiene kit creation. We have now eclipsed 70,000 kits created since we began this signature work in March 2020" - Tony Mirenda
