Bags of Joy is a service project started in order to help families with elementary-aged students who live on a SNAP budget. The schools often supplement the needs of the students as they arise, giving deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo etc. to whom ever needs it. This initiative supplies students with these supplies while they are out of school for the winter break. I hope that after taking this challenge more people will consider donating toiletries to help students and give parents one less thing to worry about. The holiday season is one that is supposed to be joyful; however, many families with struggling financially think of the holiday season as one of stress. Bags of Joy helps make the holiday season a little less stressful and a little more joyful.
