Soap Donations for BeHeartfelt
BeHeartfelt is a 501(c)3 non-profit charity that serves children experiencing homelessness in Guam, Palau and Saipan by partnering with the local schools to provide food, shoes, socks and hygiene kits. These families live in tin shacks (like you see in the photos) without running water or electricity. My amazing friend, Lori Marble, founded the organization because she experienced homelessness as a child. She understands the stigma as well as the desperate need. Her success story gives people hope that their circumstances can change! Lori and I have been friends for over 10 years and I proudly serve as a board member of the BeHeartfelt organization.
The 2025 soap donation drive will be TUESDAY, January 21-Saturday, January 25, but you are ALWAYS welcome to send soaps! (Monday is a holiday)
One of the main items needed for the hygiene kits is SOAP! As soapmakers, we tend to have plenty. We will be sending soaps directly to Guam, and Lori plans to bring soaps to Palau and Saipan as well when she visits again next month.
Your donations are completely tax deductible. If you wish to receive documentation of your donation, please include your full name and email address.
