At Men & Women of Character Organization, we are committed to supporting the well-being of youth through our comprehensive hygiene and self-care programs. Recognizing the importance of personal care for confidence and success, we have developed two key initiatives to ensure that every young person has access to the resources they need to confidently start the school year and continue to thrive throughout the year.
EMPOWERMENT ESSENTIALS PROGRAM
FRESH START KITS
EVERYDAY ESSENTIALS REQUESTS
These kits are distributed not only at our annual Back to School Slay in-School Self-Care Hygiene Summit but also during our partnerships with local organizations for their back-to-school events. These events are dynamic, focusing on equipping youth with essential tools for back to school while also focusing on both personal hygiene and self-care as they embark on a new school year.
Back to School Slay in School Event Overview: The summit, along with our partnered events, is designed for youth aged 8 through 18 and includes a variety of age-appropriate workshops and discussions. These sessions cover important topics such as personal hygiene, self-esteem, mental health, and more, ensuring that each participant leaves the event feeling prepared, equipped, and empowered for the school year ahead.
