Bags of Hope
Kaitlyn is very passionate about aiding the homeless population. After going on several mission trips with her youth group at Hope Church, she decided to create “bags of hope” to hand out to the homeless population in Dayton. She made 100 bags that contained a bible, blanket, mask, journal, pen, water, nutritional bars, and a brochure with information about where to get shelter, nourishment and employment. Kaitlyn wrote a personal inspirational letter that was in included in each bag. Kaitlyn, along with her mother, personally handed out each bag to a homeless individual in downtown Dayton, often praying with them to give them hope. Her church youth group will continue her project.
