Project Description Details

Our Bare Necessities program is one of our most popular programs available for our parents. We all know how quickly the expense of household necessities such as laundry detergent, paper towels, toilet paper, etc. can add up.

The Bare Necessities program provides families with a supply of the most-needed household items that are used in the home daily. This keeps the home running smoothly and helps to reduce the financial burden that is associated with restocking practical household items.

Currently our Bare Necessities items are running extremely low. Our hope is that your community would be willing to do a Bare Necessities Donation Drive and collect these items over the next few weeks or months.

Our Single Parents battling Cancer Need Your Help, Please Help Collect Toiletry Items for them and their families.

Each month, Singleton Moms provides families with the “Bare Necessities” they need to make it through the month. Bare Necessities can be defined as any of the things a family cannot do without. We strive to relieve the stress of taking a trip to Target after a chemotherapy treatments so the kids have toothpaste or toilet paper, as well as the financial burden that all of these necessities incur on a household.

Fragrance Free and Organic Products Are Great!

Please descibe the Social Problem that this Project will help to solve. Why is this important?

Singleton Moms is a small, Arizona-based non-profit with a mighty vision. We are dedicated to nurturing single parents battling cancer and their minor children. We do this by meeting the practical day-to-day needs of the entire family, while providing hope for tomorrow.

In 2005, 32-year-old Michelle Singleton was one of them, a single parent to four beautiful children, with cancer. Struggling through various medical treatments and everyday hardships of single parenthood, Michelle Singleton made every effort to provide for her family and stay strong for her children through her ongoing battle with cancer.

Singleton Moms was founded by two friends of Michelle’s and witnessed the lack of resources for single parents facing cancer in Maricopa County, and created a unique charitable organization providing financial assistance, household items, healthy prepared meals, house cleaning services, and more. Singleton Moms allows these courageous single parents to focus on their recovery, and spend more precious time with their children. Our resources are based solely upon community support.

What You can do to Help on this Project. How our Community can Help Us.

Our community can help this project by reaching out to schools, churches, businesses, individuals or anyone who wants to support a
Bare Necessities Donation Drive. Our community can help by realizing that many of our parents are on food stamps and other financial assistance, but these do not provide help with everyday toiletry items.
