We are excited to invite you to join us for a heartfelt volunteer opportunity with Machiah’s House Inc. Our upcoming event is focused on providing support, hope, and encouragement to young women who have aged out of foster care. These young women face unique challenges as they transition into adulthood, and we want to show them that they are not alone.
We are gathering essential toiletries and personal care items to create "Hope in a Bag: Empowerment Care Kits" that will be gifted to these incredible young women. This is not just about providing material items, but about giving a gift of dignity, care, and compassion. By volunteering, you will help us assemble these care kits, share kind messages, and most importantly, offer hope to those who need it most.
How You Can Help: We are asking volunteers to assist in various ways, from donating items to helping us organize and pack the care kits. Your involvement, whether big or small, will make a huge difference!

Shampoo & Conditioner
Body Wash & Lotion

Your time, donations, and care are invaluable as we work to show these young women that they are seen, loved, and capable of achieving great things. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in their lives. Thank you for considering joining us in this mission to empower, uplift, and inspire. We look forward to seeing you at the event!
