I love it when brands do good things so I just had to share this! This month, 100 homeless people in Boston are now living in permanent supportive housing thanks to the generosity of The Pine Street Inn. The Pine Street Inn is the largest resource for the homeless in the state of Massachusetts. They provide emergency shelters for the homeless, have street teams and offer job placement programs as well as many other resources. Isn’t this a wonderful program?
Scotties Facial Tissues also wanted to help so they partnered up and the new residents were welcomed into their new homes with comfort care packs. Scotties provided each of the 100 residents with a queen-sized fleece blanket, warm slipper socks, a mug with hot cocoa and marshmallows, and of course boxes of soft Scotties tissues! These small gifts of comfort can go a long way to turn a house into a home. These people are now on their way to a better life thanks to a wonderful program and a caring brand.
Maria (pictured above), was recently homeless but was one of the 100 who have now lived in their beautiful homes for the last three months. She has made her home her own by beautifully decorating it in the style of her native home, Columbia. She is ready to snuggle up with the Scotties blanket this winter!

Doesn’t this give you the warm fuzzies? For me it does and therefore I feel good purchasing products from brands like Scotties who give back and make a difference!
