Personal toiletries for men and women include, for example, body soap, bar soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, etc. Paper products such as toilet paper, paper towels, and Kleenex are also needed. Please help us to reach out to these families. A donation box marked NEW HOPE MINISTRIES OF MCKEESPORT is in the Narthex. Thank you.
