Join the Hygiene for the Holidays Virtual Drive

The holiday season is here—and your business has the power to make it brighter for Kansas City families in need. That’s exactly what forward-thinking companies are doing by signing up for Giving the Basics’ Hygiene for the Holidays Virtual Drive, running November 24 – December 19.

This year, we’re aiming to raise $250,000 to provide 500,000+ essentials—and your team can be the difference. By signing up, you can help ensure more students, families, and seniors have the dignity of hygiene this winter.

Why Businesses Are Saying YES to our Holiday Virtual Drive

It’s simple: impact + ease + employee engagement = win-win-win.

• Low Effort, High Impact.
  Your team donates online in seconds—no boxes, no drop-offs. Just share the link:
  https://givingthebasics.org/hygienefortheholidays/
• 2X MATCH = Double the Dignity.
  Every dollar donated through December 31 is matched up to $125,000—so $50 from your team becomes $100 in hygiene essentials.
• Built-In Team Spirit.
  We send you everything:
  • Flyers & e-blast templates
  • Social media graphics
  • A physical poster (mailed to you!) to track donations and spark friendly competition

  “Add employee names as gifts roll in—watch the leaderboard grow!”

• Weekly Impact Updates.
  We track donations by company name and send personalized progress reports—perfect for internal shoutouts or leadership recaps.
• CSR That Actually Feels Good.
  It’s personal. Many employees share that they or someone they know have struggled to access hygiene products at some point. These drives aren’t just charitable… they are compassionate and deeply meaningful.
