Durham Congregations in Action (DCIA) has been coordinating with food pantries all over the Durham area to help get people the food they need with support from the CROP Hunger Walk and other resources. Now, we are partnering with churches all over the city to gather the supplies people need to stay safe and healthy through this pandemic. Our local food pantries have been flooded with requests for basic sanitation items that have become hard to come by in the pandemic, but they have not had enough to meet the demand. To answer this urgent need, DCIA is launching a hygiene drive to keep our partner pantries fully stocked with the supplies Durhamites need. We are seeking the following items:

• CDC-approved disinfectant wipes or sprays (Lysol, scrubbing bubbles, Clorox)

• hand sanitizer

• Bleach

• Empty spray bottles

• paper towels

• toilet paper

• feminine hygiene products

• hand and body soap

• shampoo

If you can donate any of these, they can be dropped off at any of these partner congregations, from which the

supplies will be delivered to area food pantries for distribution to our Durham neighbors!
