Today I am sharing my newest experience with making Blessing Bags. Blessing Bags are prepackaged and prepared bags that you can keep in your vehicle in case you see a homeless person in need. It is a great concept since you are giving people something to eat and drink instead of money, that most of us aren't so trusting to give away. I cannot imagine the experience of being homeless and only hope the best for those who truly need help and love.
Below are pictures of the process but watch the video if you would like to get the walk through of how to put a bag together yourself!
After some research, most Blessing Bags cost $3 for an individual bag BUT I found a way to package bags and spend $12 for 8 Bags! That cuts the cost in half ($1.50) so you are able to make double! You can put whatever you like in a bag; more or less, just whatever you feel in your heart to give.
First of all here are all the supplies you will need:
- Scissors (to open DT supplies below)
- Marker
- Stapler or Duct Tape
Now make a trip to a Dollar Tree Store and grab the rest:
- 50 ct Brown Paper Bags
- 8 individual pk Tissues
- 6 pk Cheese Toast/Peanut Butter Crackers
- (2) 4 pk Salted Peanuts
- 10 ct Duplex Creme Cookies
- 10 ct Vanilla Creme Cookies
- 8 pk Oatmeal Creme Pies
- 50 ct Plackers
- (2) 6 ct Water Bottles or Juice
- 8 pk individual Mini Pretzels

Thanks to my mom for supporting me and buying supplies so I could make more bags! I hope this may help you if you do not know what to do or where to start to help someone else. I do this because I enjoy serving others and giving all the glory to my Savior Jesus Christ.
