Natalie Burke Capstone

For my capstone, my friend Cindy and I decided to work together and focus on the issue of homelessness in Philadelphia. Being homeless in Philadelphia is already hard enough, but women have an especially hard time. Even though we aren't able to solve homelessness as a whole, we focused on a women's safe haven, Women of Change, and began to do our research on what they were in need of. After learning what was needed the most, we decided making personal care items would be most helpful, so we began fundraising. On average, they hold about 25-30 women, so we made 30 bags to donate to the shelter, that all included tissues, feminine hygiene products, wet wipes, deodorant, tooth paste, and mouthwash.
