Hi there! I just wanted to inform and supporters we have moved!! We are now at www.ohanahygieneprojectnh.com Hope to see you there!! Carmen

Today 👏🏽 Was 👏🏽 One 👏🏽 Of 👏🏽 Those 👏🏽👏🏽Days!!! We are incredibly grateful to April’s Angels for their generous donation—these contributions will go directly into our hygiene bags and help us continue showing up for the students who need us most. We also received our Green Bin Kathy Ireland backstock bins for our schools…plus FIVE extra. That means we now have the capacity to expand and support five more schools, reaching even more students with non-toxic hygiene e

My husband sent me off to the sauna so I can prepare my heart, so I can reset and be my best as a wife and as a mother and prepare 35 #nontoxic #hygiene bags for the Pittsfield school District for delivery and navigate #manchesternh stock for their 800 students we are supporting under the #mckinneyvento act . We have decided to partner with #greenbinkathyireland for our storage bins. I wanted to find a sensible storage solution that wasn’t going to interfere with our nontox

This past Sunday, we gathered to celebrate something that means so much to us—community, compassion, and a shared commitment to supporting our youth. Our launch party was a beautiful reminder that even when things don’t unfold exactly as we envision, there is still so much to be grateful for. I want to start by saying thank you. Truly, from the bottom of my heart, thank you to every single person who showed up—for us, and more importantly, for the children we serve. You showe

Yesterday was one of those days that reminds me exactly why we started this journey. We had an amazing Community Day at the Village Play Cafe—full of connection, conversation, and so much heart. We met new friends, reconnected with a familiar face, and felt the genuine support of a community that cares. It was busy in the best way, and every interaction reminded us that this mission matters. And the day didn’t stop there. After Community Day, my daughter Luna and I had the ho

We are ironically celebrating our 2 month anniversary with lots of milestones 🫶🫶🫶🫶 Come and celebrate and see how you can make a difference in the youth of our future with us! So excited to share our mission with you! Own a business? Looking for a way to give back to your community? We are proudly serving Concord School District, Shaker Regional School District, Pittsfield School District, Merrimack Valley School District and the place where it all started, Manchester Sch

I want to take a moment to sincerely thank The Vitamin Shoppe for inviting me in and giving me the opportunity to share our mission. Being welcomed into a space where people were not only open to listening, but genuinely engaged, meant more than I can fully put into words. What stood out to me most were the conversations. Real, meaningful, human connections. One in particular will stay with me for a long time. I had the privilege of meeting a kind gentleman named Gabriel, who

It’s hard to believe that what feels like months of pushing, building, and asking for support… has really only been six weeks. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU to everyone who has shown up for us, believed in this mission, and helped us take these first steps. Because of this community, we’ve already been able to provide 400+ hygiene bags across five different school districts 🤍 Today was especially meaningful as we made our initial drop for Concord School District—a m

Big things are happening—and we need YOU with us. 💛 We are working harder than ever to rally community support to meet the needs of over 800 students in Manchester who are currently being served under the McKinney-Vento Act. These students are facing homelessness and housing instability, and access to basic hygiene is something no child should go without. Today, we’re incredibly grateful (and honestly blown away) to share that two more school districts reached out to us—Pitt

Many notice, but not enough are willing to do. This is the spark that fueled our fire of Ohana. When my family visited Oahu in January it was painful to see, knowing if I was going to be homeless, I think I’d probably choose to be there too. When we returned home I reached out to a few agency’s on the island and they all referred back to the housing cost, mental illness and drugs or alcohol abuse. Why was I so concerned about the crisis when in my own back yard, it’s the same

Right now, we are on a mission—and we need our community beside us to make it happen. At Ohana Hygiene Project NH, we are working to provide essential hygiene bags to children in Manchester who are supported under the McKinney-Vento Act—students experiencing homelessness or housing instability. These children face challenges no child should have to endure, and access to basic hygiene products should never be one of them. In order to fully meet the needs of these students, we

Y esterday was a moment we will never forget. With full hearts and overwhelming gratitude, we received confirmation that we are now officially a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization! This milestone represents so much more than paperwork—it’s a powerful step forward in our mission to serve children across New Hampshire with dignity, care, and compassion. From the very beginning, this journey has been fueled by love, determination, and the belief that every child deserves access t

Today was one of those days that reminds us exactly why we do what we do. With the incredible help of a dedicated homeschool group, we came together to pack hygiene bags for students in the Concord School District. What could have been just another task quickly turned into something so much more meaningful—an experience filled with teamwork, compassion, and a shared commitment to serving children in need. From the moment we started, there was a sense of purpose in the room. H

We are incredibly proud to share a meaningful milestone for Ohana Hygiene Project NH. With the support of our community, we have officially fulfilled Concord School District’s need of 126 hygiene bags. On Tuesday, March 31st, we will be assembling 130 non-toxic hygiene bags for Concord with the help of our church homeschool group. We are so proud to have them be a part of this mission—coming together to serve and support children in our community. As we celebrate this moment,

We want to start by saying thank you to everyone who has supported Ohana Hygiene Project New Hampshire. Your encouragement, kindness, and generosity are what keep this mission moving forward. Because of you, we feel even more driven to keep showing up for children who truly need this support. Today I learned just how many children in one single school district are in desperate need of the basic hygiene essentials many of us take for granted. And that’s just one district — i

When people think about helping children in need, they often think about food, clothing, or school supplies. But one critical need is often overlooked: basic hygiene products . For many children, something as simple as a toothbrush, deodorant, shampoo, or soap isn’t always available at home. These are items many of us take for granted every single day. But for a child without them, the impact can be much bigger than people realize. Lack of hygiene products can affect a child’
