I am rarely called to action - but when I saw this post on Pinerest I had to do the same. And I am so glad that a little good has come from my addiction to Pinerest!
These are called blessing bags. You make them up and keep them in your car for a time when you come across a homeless person.

This is what they look like from Pinerest |
These are Mine
The idea is so simple I wish I had thought of it. All you need is a gallon zip lock bag. Fill it with:
tissues
tooth paste & tooth brush
comb
soap
hand wipes
granola
crackers and cookies
chap stick
deodorant
band aids
hand or foot warmer
I also added $1 in change in case they may need to make a phone call.
I am often overwhelmed by the plight of the homeless and feel helpless - not knowing what to do and think that I really can't do anything to help. Well, this may not be much but it might help someone for a few minutes. I hope you will do the same and let me know if you do.
Happy Sewing,
Michele P
