"A parent came to me asking for laundry detergent. She's a single mom of three children with lots of barriers that keep popping up as she works hard to support them. I'd just picked up detergent from CRC a day earlier and was able to give her plenty of detergent to get her through the next month or two. Without CRC, parents wouldn't have such easy access the essentials they're not able to get themselves."
MNPS School Partner
"The families we serve are so grateful that we are able to provide personal hygiene items in their orders.  When essentials like period products, soap, and shampoo can't be purchased using SNAP benefits, families on a fixed income struggle to purchase those things.  Being able to provide these items lifts a burden for them."
Mount Juliet Help Center
"The CRC is a place full of hope, goodwill, and compassion. Every time I’m here I leave inspired by the dedication of the staff and volunteers. The people here are truly the BEST!"
Volunteer - Dennis B.
"The products provided by CRC are a great help to our guests. These hygiene products are essential and gives each person dignity and respect. Whether it's a bar of soap, a bottle of shampoo, or a tube of toothpaste, it's all important to make sure they feel seen and valued. We're very grateful for our partnership with CRC!"
Radical Heart
"Hygiene access should never be a barrier for our students and families and because of our partnership with the CRC, we are able to provide basic needs to our students and families. We have students that tap into the hygiene closet weekly and having these items readily available increases their confidence as bullying can be an issue with students that have poor hygiene or lack access to basic needs."
MNPS School Partner
"I take these items for granted every day. I’m glad to help others that don’t have the same privileges that I do."
Volunteer - Hannah P.
