Hello
My name is Leah Park and I am the founder and president of CC4U.
I am currently a high schooler in the Bergen County Area of New Jersey and am dedicated to bringing in personal hygiene items to much needed areas all over NJ!
My Story
Personal hygiene is key to maintaining a clean and healthy lifestyle. Without a way to keep your body clean and sanitary, you can often contract contagious diseases and get sick. Personal hygiene is key not only to a healthy physical state, but also a good mental state. Having good personal hygiene gives an elevated sense of confidence and helps defend against depression and anxiety. We often take the personal hygiene items we have for granted, but take a minute to imagine a life without those products.
Many people's lives are actually that imagination. Personal hygiene is a right to a healthy lifestyle, and I strongly believe that access to these products can make a world of a difference.
Through my time volunteering at Oasis: A Haven for Women and Children in Paterson, NJ, I came to love the children there. These are kind, motivated, and wonderful kids who love to tell jokes and give the occasional sweet compliment. Unfortunately, a lot of the amazing kids that I've met don't have access to personal hygiene items. After learning that many of their families lack personal hygiene products, I promised myself that I would be able to help them access these daily necessities. To me, every donation is a piece of caring and comfort that a community can give if they come together.
Support CC4U in our mission to bring a sense of comfort and cleanliness to families in underserved communities!
Hello
My name is Libi Abehssera and I am the vice president of CC4U.
I am currently a high schooler in the Bergen County Area of New Jersey, and know how important personal hygiene is to underprivileged areas. By also volunteering at Oasis: A Haven for Women and Children in Paterson, NJ, and helping underprivileged children learn English and Math, I recognize the need for helping people in similar economic states. Many of the children we help don't have the same type of access more advantaged areas have. especially with hygiene, which is why I want to help.
When traveling over the world, it is more common to see disadvantaged people who lack good access to hygiene, coming from a personal experience. This is also a huge reason to why I am dedicated for this cause.
