Basic Necessities Project

Providing supplies for the Caravan of Love with Border Angels

 

BASIC DIGNITIES partnered WITH BORDER ANGELS IN SAN DIEGO, CA TO PROVIDE ITEMS FOR THEIR CARAVAN OF LOVE, WHICH MAKES REGULAR DELIVERIES OF ESSENTIAL ITEMS TO THE MEXICO SIDE OF US-MEXICO BORDER.

After a successful project in Uganda, Basic Dignities decided to work closer to home to address the humanitarian crisis on our southern border. Basic Dignities believes no one should be forced to risk their lives out of desperation while trying to establish a life away from violence and fear, and as a humanitarian group we wanted to help provide people with the basic “dignities” they need to survive.

Over a period of eight months, Basic Dignities collected items and monetary donations to support people stuck at the US-Mexico border. Through many generous donations, we were able to send the following items to the border to assist those in need:

  • Five 500-gallon tanks of water

  • Clothing

  • Hygiene products

  • Towels

  • Baby supplies (diapers, formula)

  • Children’s toys

Thank you to everyone who donated funds or items to this project!
