Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3
THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS PROGRAM ARE: 1. TO IMPROVE SOCIAL INCLUSION: PEOPLE WHO FEEL CONNECTED TO OTHERS HAVE A STRONGER IMMUNE SYSTEM, LESS SEVERE SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION AND ANXIETY, STRONGER SELF-ESTEEM AND MAY EVEN LIVE LONGER; 2. TO IMPROVE SELF-CARE AND HYGIENE AMONG WOMEN WHO ARE HOMELESS. WHEN A WOMAN CANNOT PROPERLY CARE FOR HER HYGIENE, IT CAN BLOCK MOTIVATION TO FIND GAINFUL EMPLOYMENT, HOUSING AND OTHER ESSENTIAL NEEDS. FAILURE TO SECURE NEEDS OFTEN LEADS TO DESPAIR AND WORSENS AN ALREADY POOR VIEW OF SELF. 3. TO ENHANCE SELF-CONFIDENCE. HAVING ACCESS TO PERSONAL CARE ITEMS AND BEAUTY PRODUCTS CAN HELP IMPROVE SELF WORTH AND CONFIDENCE. FEELING GOOD ABOUT ONESELF CAN HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON RECOVERY AND TOWARD FINDING EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING. PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS: THE SHOEBOX PROJECT DISTRIBUTED $134,207 WORTH OF ITEMS TO WOMEN'S SHELTERS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING 1486 GIFT-FILLED SHOEBOXES, $10,985 IN GIFT CARDS, $21,000 WORTH OF BEAUTY PRODUCTS, $3,389 WORTH OF PERSONAL CARE ITEMS, TOILETRIES, AND WARM ACCESSORIES.
