Join Women Unite! as we gather items for A House in Austin (AHIA), a dedicated parent-child resource hub that empowers families in a holistic manner, fostering growth and success at every level. We’ll be working with folks across the city to gather the following items. Please note that we are only accepting NEW and UNOPENED items.
Shampoo, conditioner, and soap (for adults, kids, and babies)
Period products (more requests for tampons)
Toilet paper
Diapers (sizes 5 and up and all pull ups are most in demand)
Baby wipes

AHIA serves 35 families, which includes nearly 70 kids. Our goal is to gather enough items to make 70 kits. This will allow each family to get one kit, plus one refill! Help us hit our goal by:
