Helping the homeless? Sounds cliche. While there are many people that claim to help the homeless when there is a large amount of people lacking basic items, you know that there is a problem. Thousands of people lack basic hygiene and first-aid supplies.  While helping the homeless is important, there are other people who need help that are overlooked. People who live paycheck-to-paycheck, students, and the foster care system all need the same attention as the homeless do. Small items such as band-aids, wipes, and hand sanitizer can help prevent infections and improve health.
