Join Our Fight for Hygiene Equality in South Louisiana
Donations Accepted
July 1-July 31, 2026
At BBR Creative, we believe everyone deserves the dignity of good hygiene. That means having access to bathrooms, being able to take a shower and starting each day fresh. Through our Hygiene for Humanity program, we proudly partner with nonprofit organizations in Lafayette and Baton Rouge to raise awareness for hygiene inequality and support those in need.
From July 1 – July 31, we’ll be collecting hygiene product donations. All 2026 donations will benefit Catholic Charities of Acadiana and Christian Outreach of Baton Rouge. These organizations provide free housing support, access to bathroom & shower facilities and hygienic supplies for the local community.
Did you know?
More than half a million people experience homelessness across the United States each year. And it’s happening right here in South Louisiana. For people facing this hardship, everyday hygiene activities like taking a shower become huge hurdles to overcome.
Purchasing hygiene products isn’t always an option—and even when it is, bathroom facilities can be hard to find or impossible to access. These challenges affect a person’s ability to secure a job, build social connections and thrive in their community. And it can impact their mental and physical health as well.

The following hygiene items are on our donation wish list! These products have been specified by our nonprofit partners as their most critically needed items.
