When someone in your community is struggling, you want to help, but you may not know how.
The MRP Project’s Bags for a Boost program offers a simple, meaningful way to show you care. Community members can nominate an adult experiencing a hardship to receive a comfort bag filled with fun and comforting items. Recipients may be coping with a personal or family illness, the loss of a loved one, the end of a marriage, job loss, or another difficult life circumstance.
Sometimes, a small act of kindness can make a big difference. Each bag offers a reminder that someone is thinking of the recipient and that they are not alone.

About the Bag for a Boost
The MRP Project partners with individual donors and companies to collect fun and comfort items for people facing hardships. Each signature bag contains 10–15 donated items and an uplifting note from The MRP Project. The note identifies the person who nominated the recipient, unless the bag is sent anonymously. Our dedicated volunteers deliver each bag, sharing a thoughtful reminder that someone cares.
