Women & Family Life Center Basic Needs Drive Underway

GUILFORD, CT —The Women & Family Life Center is holding a month-long drive to help those in need this winter.

While holiday drives are often focused on gifts, clothing, and money, W&FLC is looking for everyday personal hygiene and household items that can often be difficult to access. No donation is too small, and we thank our community for their continued support.

Beginning Thursday and continuing until Dec. 30, those wishing to donate may drop goods off Monday through Friday between 9:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. at the Women and Family Life Center, 96 Fair St., in Guilford.

The ask is that all items donated be full size, new and unopened. All donations are tax-deductible.

Here's what's needed:

 Soap/Facewash/Bodywash
 Toothbrush/Toothpaste
 Mouthwash
 Floss
 Deodorant
 Razors/ Shaving Cream
