Providing Northwest Arkansas families and individuals with free essential personal and home products that are otherwise unattainable by those living at or near poverty.
Essentials Outreach is a 501(c)3 that gives hygiene products to individuals in rural communities in Washington and Benton County, Arkansas. Started in October 2015 in Fayetteville, we seek to meet the need for hygiene products in rural communities in Northwest Arkansas. Our four designated distribution locations are in rural Northwest Arkansas communities with a high level of need.
Each bundle contains a supply of 10 critical items for a family. Bundles are customized based on family size and contain:
deodorant
toilet paper
razors
Hand Soap
dish detergent
toothbrushes

The Need is Great.
Every month Essentials Outreach serves over 345 individuals and impacts 100 families with our Outreaches. Our four designated distribution locations are in rural Northwest Arkansas communities with higher levels of need.
