Donate laundry detergent for senior citizen project
Humanitarian Service Project (HSP) is seeking laundry detergent for our Senior Citizen Project which serves 120 low-income senior citizens in the local area.
Thirty-seven bottles/boxes are needed by Friday, July 22 to ensure that every senior receives one in their upcoming delivery.
If you are interested in donating, please feel free to stop by our office anytime Monday-Friday from 9:00am-5:00pm. HSP is grateful for any donation and we thank you for you contribution!
The goal of the Senior Citizen Project is to help eliminate the persistence of pain, despair, fear, worry, suffering, and humiliation that the cycle of poverty brings to DuPage and Kane's seniors. We do this by ensuring that the basic needs of these seniors are met — this includes a monthly delivery of 90 pounds of food, paper products, cleaning products, and personal hygiene products. All of this is made possible by generous donations!
About the Humanitarian Service Project
HSP has been given the highest Four Star rating by Charity Navigator for the seventh consecutive year. Founded in 1979, HSP's mission is to alleviate the pain and suffering that poverty creates in seniors and children living in DuPage and Kane counties, Illinois. Last year during the Christmas Offering Project, 1,264 children received gifts and 150 impoverished families received three weeks of groceries, frozen meats, and fresh produce. With the Senior Citizen Project, HSP provides a monthly food delivery and secret pal gifts to 120 low-income seniors.
The Children's Birthday Project reaches the youngest underprivileged, making birthdays and Christmas truly memorable occasions for 700 children. Feed the Kids provides 100 low-income families with groceries and fresh produce during the summer months. HSP conducts an annual school supplies drive that benefited a total of 5,200 children by giving supplies to the DuPage Back to School Fair and directly to schools and individual children.
