Many people take “everyday items” for granted – until they have to go without.
Our Impact
Since we began in 2011, H&C Hygiene Hub has distributed over 14 million essential hygiene products to Massachusetts residents. These products have a massive, far-reaching effect that positively affects the health and self-esteem of those we serve and supercharges the work of our community partners.
We’re proud that we…
Work with 500 youth-serving and community organizations to distribute products
Engage over 800 volunteers annually to achieve our mission across MA
Have established relationships with suppliers to purchase products at the lowest possible cost
Are currently on track to distribute 5 million hygiene products in 2024… and we’re not stopping there!
The stats translate to smiles.
