Today kicks off the first Blazer Kitchen Toiletry Drive!  It will run October 2-30, 2017.

UAB Benevolent Fund’s Blazer Kitchen is an on-campus food bank for UAB employees and students who face food insecurities.  Blazer Kitchen has currently served over 16,545 meals to over 69 students and 141 employees. While food items are collected through local community food banks, non-perishable items such as toiletries are in high need and are not covered by SNAP (food stamps).

These items include:

• toilet paper
• soap
• shampoo
• deodorant
• feminine hygiene products
• toothbrushes
• toothpaste
• dental floss
• dish washing liquid
• laundry detergent
• paper towels
• household cleaners
• reusable shopping bags
• cotton swabs

We ask for your support in donating these toiletry items for the Blazer Kitchen for those who are in desperate need. Items can be dropped off in the designated drop-boxes placed in your unit/department/school or items can be left with your UAB Staff Council Representative.   Please This email address is being protected from spambots.
