\u00a0The basketball team at Brockport Central High School will be helping to spread the word about the Community Hygiene Bank! We had the opportunity to be represented on these great new t-shirts along with other wonderful local businesses. These shirts will be thrown out into the crowds at the basketball games to promote school spirit. With our logo and phone number on the back, we hope this will help more people learn about who we are. Thank you to the school, the basketball team, and All-American Publishing for the chance to be a part of this. If you go to the games, make sure to catch a shirt with our name on it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Thursday September 18, 2025 the Community Hygiene Bank (CHB) conducted a hygiene distribution with folks at Royal Gardens, an independent living center in Brockport. Terry Kennison, vice president of the CHB Program Board has contributed his truck and his muscle \ud83d\ude0a to get hygiene items to our friends at Royal Gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had a wonderful time as always distributing hygiene items at Royal Gardens. We are grateful for the engagement and support that we always receive from the residents and team there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Saturday, August 23rd, the Community Hygiene Bank participated in the annual Family Fun Day at our very own Jubilee Christian Church!

On Friday, August 22, 2025, the Community Hygiene Bank was invited to have a table at the Autumn Woods Community Resident Appreciation Day and picnic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our CHB staff, interns, and volunteers passed out our information, spoke with people about hygiene poverty in our area and received donated hygiene items. Residents received a raffle ticket for their in-kind or cash donation. It was a successful day and a fun way to meet people in our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
