Building a community where everyone helps and no one goes without.
Our Mission
At Essential Needs Quincy, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to focus on fulfilling their higher needs. We’re dedicated to collecting and distributing essential items to individuals and families in our community, ensuring they have the basic necessities to thrive.
Our Kits
We’re currently focusing on four essential kits:
- Hygiene Kits: Providing the essentials for personal care, including towels, soaps, shampoos, feminine hygiene products, hair care products, toothbrushes, and more.
- Cleaning Kits: Equipping households with kitchen and bathroom cleaning supplies, towels, and window cleaner, all neatly packaged in a new, clean bucket or dish pan.
- Minute for Mom Kits: Offering a moment of self-care with extras like facial cleanser, lip gloss, fingernail polish, and skin creams.
- Art Kits: Inspiring creativity with chalk, crayons, colored pencils, play-dough, markers, and blank sketch pads.
