Rise Up Glendale Youth Council

HELP US BY PURCHASING AN ITEM FROM THE AMAZON WISH LIST QR CODE

The Rise Up Glendale Youth Council are creating care kits to show love and kindness to people in need. Help by donating supplies.

💛 What we’ll do:
Create small “kindness kits” with essentials like water, snacks, and hygiene items, along with a handwritten message of encouragement.

💬 These kits can be kept in your car and shared with someone in need—especially those we see every day at stoplights or in our community.

☀️ Why it matters:
As summer and high temperatures approach, even small acts of kindness can make a big impact.

✨ Make it meaningful:
Include a simple message like:

  • “You matter”
  • “Wishing you a better day”
