The food pantry needs cleanliness and flavoring; hand soap is one of those things that people who don’t have enough money for food can’t afford to buy. They always have to make painful choices.
Yet, as any family knows, hand soaps are essential.
Sadly, soap is often bypassed in favor of food. The Nissin Ramen Soy Sauce is one of those favored flavorings the pantry has also run out of. We can help.

I’m working to learn more about hunger and food insecurity. I’m touched and surprised by what I am learning:
According to the United States Department of Agriculture, More than 44 million people in the US face hunger, including 1 in 5 children. Millions of people in the US don’t have enough food to eat or don’t have access to healthy food. This is a big problem, but together, we can solve it.
A million more households with children (3.3 million households) experienced food insecurity last year than in 2021. The report found that more than 13 million children in the U.S. (18.5% of the child population) lived in food-insecure households in 2022.

Join me in this simple act of kindness. When I often have trouble sleeping, I buy an item on the Wish List. It’s a small gesture, but it makes a big difference.
Try it. Doing good feels good; we’re doing this together and doing a tremendous amount of good.
Here’s one of my added requests; I know how popular it is:
