Care Packages for Mexican Prison Inmates

$550 of $1,000 goal
Given by 14 generous donors in 9 weeks

Help us raise funds to buy a $10 personal hygiene kit for 100 male Mexican prisoners.

Tauranga, Bay Of Plenty

Break Free Charitable Trust is raising funds for personal care packs containing $10 of hygiene products including soap, toilet paper, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste etc for male prison inmates. These will be distributed by a team of New Zealanders who will be visiting Mexico to build a home for a family in need during September 2024 with Volunteer Build. Prison social workers will select 100 inmates, many of whom don't get visitors, and our team will spend a couple of hours with them. Thanks for showing these inmates that you care about them.

About us

The Trust was set up to provide relief of poverty, hunger and sickness by providing food, clothing & shelter to the poor. It also provides education and training to the public and schools about issues of world poverty and how to alleviate those issues.

Use of funds

Funds raised will be used to buy 100 personal hygiene packs for prisoners. Packs include toilet paper, soap, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste etc. Each pack costs approx. $10.

Thank you so much for helping us with fundraising for prison packs. We visited Ensenada Prision 2 weeks ago and delivered the packs containing toilet paper, toothbrush, toothpaste, razor, soap and stick deodorant. The guys were super happy to see us and receive their gifts. Thank you again for bringing a bit of joy to those who are in tough situations! We so appreciate you!
