Thank you to MCM WORLDWIDE for hosting a Self-Care Kit event with our students! 🌟 Our students had a fantastic time sewing self-care bags with the support of MCM employees. Each student completed two bags: one to keep and one to give away! The bags were filled with essential hygiene products and self-care items like stress balls, tea bags, fuzzy socks, and encouraging notes! A special thank you to Jennifer Benitez for planning this wonderful event with us! 💖 Interested in volunteering? Email us at [email protected] 📧
