1
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:11,880
Speaker 1: From WBZ News Radio in Boston. This is New England Weekend.

2
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: Each week we come together right here talk about all

3
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 1: the topics important to you and the place where you live.

4
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: Thanks again for tuning in this week. I'm Nicole Davis. Well,

5
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 1: sometimes if you're down and out, just not feeling yourself,

6
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: a little bit of self care is all it takes

7
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: to lift your spirits, and for many women a bit

8
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: of lipstick or blush or mascara can do just the trick.

9
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: Good makeup, though, is not cheap, and when you're struggling

10
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: to make ends meet, it's certainly not a priority. In Westborough,

11
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: a nonprofit called Give and Glow works every day to

12
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 1: team up with donors, influencers, and beauty companies and direct

13
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: beauty products to women in need to boost their confidence

14
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,960
Speaker 1: and dignity. Over in Needam, a nonprofit called Circle of

15
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: Hope is doing something similar year round, providing necessities and

16
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:56,279
Speaker 1: hygiene products to people experiencing homelessness. The two nonprofits are

17
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: coming together for a great cause this holiday, so let's

18
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 1: talk about it that aspreally, the founder of Give and

19
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: Glow is here and Ari Barbonell. She's been on the

20
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: show before. She is now with Circle of Hope. She's

21
00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 1: their executive director and she returns to the show. It's

22
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: great to have you both, Samantha. I would love to

23
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: hear a bit more about Give and Glow and your

24
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:14,919
Speaker 1: mission first.

25
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 2: Absolutely so at Give and Glow, we believe confidence creates opportunity,

26
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: and how we do that is we restore the dignity

27
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 2: and self love among women in need by partnering with

28
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 2: beauty brands, influencers and generous donors who have unused excess

29
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: inventory of beauty products, and we redirect those products into

30
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: the hands of women who deserve it the most, especially

31
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 2: around the holiday time. We all want to feel a

32
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 2: little extra joy and feel beautiful, So whether that's with

33
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: a lipstick, mascara, or even a brand new shampoo and conditioner,

34
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 2: we provide nonprofits with the tools to enhance their essential

35
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 2: services that they provide with a little more beauty products

36
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:56,840
Speaker 2: in their life.

37
00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: How often are you working with these influencers Because I

38
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: know that you know brand deals, you see the videos,

39
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: and these influencers have like boxes and boxes that they're

40
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: opening up at any given time. How often are you

41
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: getting the product from these influencers?

42
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,720
Speaker 2: It is a constant year round process of them receiving

43
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: pr packages that they can't use all of the product.

44
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 2: They they're one person and they only have so much

45
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: to give away to family and friends, and they're doing

46
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: a great thing by being able to share with their

47
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: followers that Hey, the product that I get really goes

48
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 2: to women across the country and in Boston, Massachusetts that

49
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 2: really deserve to feel beautiful. And the influencers, the brands

50
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 2: and especially Give and Glow want to send a message

51
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 2: that we're not giving products because we think that women

52
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,160
Speaker 2: need to look a certain way, but we know the

53
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: effect that the product has or you can show up

54
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: more confident and capable in yourself. We're giving women the

55
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 2: tools that they need to look in the mirror and

56
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: see more than their circumstances. And that's the smile that

57
00:02:57,760 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 2: we're trying to create.

58
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. And then Circle of Hope are I

59
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,839
Speaker 1: mean you all are focused on hygiene as well. Tell

60
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,040
Speaker 1: me about your angle and what you all focus on.

61
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, Circle of Hope. We're providing clothing and hygiene essentials

62
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 3: to people experiencing homelessness or who are housing insecure, and

63
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,560
Speaker 3: we provide these for people from the age of zero

64
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,919
Speaker 3: to one hundred, all ages, filling all the gaps, making

65
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 3: sure the whole family, the whole person has everything they

66
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 3: need to stay warm, to stay healthy, for their best

67
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 3: mental health, their best physical health. And so we focus

68
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 3: on all populations, like I said, and we're especially focused

69
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 3: on women and children, and also we have an incredible

70
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 3: program focused on students, college and career bound young people.

71
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,720
Speaker 3: It's incredible the rates of homelessness among people in that

72
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 3: age group and that high school through age twenty four

73
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 3: age group. And so that's been a big focus as well.

74
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 3: And we've been so grateful to work with Samantha to

75
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: provide these products to our community.

76
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: The economy is all over the place right now. People

77
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: are struggling in all different financial levels here. What are

78
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: you seeing when it comes to the need not just

79
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: for clothing, but for these basic hygiene products that I

80
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,280
Speaker 1: think a lot of people don't realize are not covered

81
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: by Snap.

82
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,119
Speaker 3: You nailed it, That's what I was going to share.

83
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 3: I think people don't realize that it was never covered

84
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 3: by Snap. And now that we're dealing with all of

85
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 3: these challenges with the increase in pricing and the challenges

86
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: around Snap, more than ever, these hygiene items are essential,

87
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 3: and it's not an option to have a little extra

88
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,919
Speaker 3: income to buy the toothpaste or the shampoo, or the

89
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 3: soap or the deodorant that you might need for you

90
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 3: or your families. So the demand on our services has

91
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 3: grown so much. We're so grateful to be here and

92
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,559
Speaker 3: be able to meet that need. But for the first

93
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 3: time in our history, we have a wait list for

94
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: organizations and people in need of our services.

95
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: I feel like that's something I'm seeing from a lot

96
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,719
Speaker 1: of nonprofits across the board, not just in the hygiene space,

97
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: but really any nonprofit that provides essential services. Are you

98
00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: hearing that from your peers in the space as well?

99
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,320
Speaker 3: Absolutely? Absolutely. I think the challenges around funding, the challenges

100
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 3: around rising levels of homelessness and poverty, we're all feeling

101
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 3: pushed upon to do more and we want to, and

102
00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:16,279
Speaker 3: all of our peers are rising to the occasion. We

103
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 3: fill gaps. We work with other nonprofits, just like Samantha does,

104
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 3: and I think that's what's beautiful. We're all part of

105
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 3: this ecosystem, supporting each other, but we are leaning in

106
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:27,159
Speaker 3: and on each other more than ever.

107
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, Samantha, I mean the beautiful thing about makeup is

108
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 1: that some people might consider it to be a luxury.

109
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: Some people might just say it's not necessary. But you need,

110
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: I think, to put on your freshest face to go

111
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: look for a job. You need it for confidence, just

112
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: to you know, get through the day. Sometimes a little

113
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: bit of lipstick, a little bit of you know, I

114
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,039
Speaker 1: can't leave my house without my liquid eyeliner. It's just

115
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 1: like since sixteen years old. It's just the way it's been.

116
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: I don't look like me without it. Talk to me

117
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 1: a little bit about what it's like for people who

118
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: wear makeup, who how this can be such a boost

119
00:05:58,720 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: for them.

120
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 2: Absolutely so. The way that we think about it is

121
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 2: Maslow's hierarchy of needs, and our nonprofit partners really serve

122
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 2: the bottom tier, the basic essential for survival and safety.

123
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 2: And we partner with our nonprofits to enhance what they

124
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 2: already do best and say focus on the essentials that

125
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 2: is not only needed all the time, but especially right now.

126
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: We will bring your services to a level four and

127
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 2: we will cover those psychological needs of makeup, of skincare,

128
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 2: of hair care, and with our thirty partners that we

129
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 2: are so excited to serve in December, that they know

130
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: that these products that the women and in their communities

131
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 2: they're receiving. It's going to just bring extra joy to them,

132
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 2: especially around these times. And we're so excited to partner

133
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 2: with Circle of Hope to expand our ability to serve

134
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 2: the nonprofit partners in our community.

135
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: Samantha, tell me a bit about this event. How did

136
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: you two get together on all this? I'm so curious

137
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: about that.

138
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, So, as Auri mentioned the amount that we have

139
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 2: to lean on each other as nonprofit partner in these

140
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 2: times when the need has been greater than ever. There

141
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 2: are weightless and we are providing products at a faster

142
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 2: rate than we've ever had before. Partnering expands our capabilities

143
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: in our ability to distribute the products to a wider

144
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: audience than we have been before. So we're so grateful

145
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: for a Circle of Hope to partner with us on

146
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 2: our first ever holiday wish list. Beauty product distribution is

147
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 2: kind of a mouthful that we're calling it. So this

148
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,960
Speaker 2: is a day on December tenth that we are serving

149
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 2: thirty nonprofit partners in Massachusetts, New York, Ohio, Illinois, Oregon

150
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 2: and beyond with over forty six thousand products for the

151
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 2: holiday season. And that includes general skincare, hair care, and

152
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: makeup bundles that the nonprofits requested based on the population

153
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: that they serve. And then also we're packing one thousand

154
00:07:55,640 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 2: curated care packages with lipsticks skincare sero that women are

155
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,560
Speaker 2: actually going to be able to walk away with a

156
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 2: bag full of products. So Circle of Hope is going

157
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: to help us not only on site and pack those products,

158
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: but get out these kits in a rapid manner that

159
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 2: everyone can have them and enjoy for the holidays. And

160
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,120
Speaker 2: what was super important to mention is that when we

161
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 2: give away these products, we know that one lipstick isn't

162
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: going to change someone's life. Not only do we make

163
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,880
Speaker 2: sure that each person receiving our products gets around three

164
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 2: to four items that they can choose from, but they're

165
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 2: able to use those products over and over again and

166
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 2: creates a ripple effect of smiles and joy and dignity,

167
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,439
Speaker 2: restoring that we are trying to create.

168
00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: Over at Circle of Hope. Ari, I mean an event

169
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 1: like this, you all do so much throughout the year,

170
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: but this seems to be a little extra special.

171
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you know, the holiday time brings it

172
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 3: out in all of us that we want to make

173
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 3: sure people feel their best. It's a hard time for people,

174
00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 3: especially people experiencing homelessness or at risk of losing their

175
00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 3: their home. So it was amazing that we met Samantha

176
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 3: about a year ago. I think now and we've been

177
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 3: able to work together consistently, and now, more than ever,

178
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 3: it feels like the perfect time to be able to

179
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 3: provide this extra, this wonderful treat We serve, like I said,

180
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 3: a number of women and female identifying community members, and

181
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 3: we have so many partners that we've told that we

182
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 3: are going to be able to distribute this to already

183
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 3: and they are beyond excited. I think it's perfect timing

184
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 3: to add a little something special.

185
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,560
Speaker 1: Agreed, So, Samantha, do you need volunteers? What do you

186
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: need that somebody listening can provide for you right now

187
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:42,559
Speaker 1: to help with this?

188
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, the need has been greater than ever,

189
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:49,559
Speaker 2: and we are really lucky to have volunteers from Beacon

190
00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 2: Hill Wellness Brands based out of new and we have

191
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 2: thirty people coming to create joy and pack all of

192
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,880
Speaker 2: these care packages for us. But what the need is

193
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 2: greater than ever is the financial contributions to expand our

194
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,079
Speaker 2: ability to continue to distribute these products in twenty twenty six.

195
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 2: We have an incredible amount of brands and influencers that

196
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: are going to have leftover products from the holidays they

197
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: didn't sell. They're offering new products in twenty twenty six.

198
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 2: We expect an incredible amount of donations in quarter one

199
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,320
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty six, and we need help getting that out.

200
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: And that's the most important way to support is providing

201
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 2: those financial contributions to be able to brighten a women's

202
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 2: day with some beauty products. And we're so grateful for

203
00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 2: everyone who has supported and continue to support a unique

204
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:39,439
Speaker 2: mission with beauty products.

205
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 1: All right, same question for you, Aria, your again, your

208
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: for the next few weeks and months.

209
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you know. We have a donation center.

210
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,199
Speaker 3: As Samantha said, I echo, financial donations are essential to

211
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 3: keeping the work going and alive. Also accept new and

212
00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 3: gently used clothing and new hygiene items. We're open four

213

Speaker 3: days a week on the weekdays ten to twelve for

Speaker 3: drop ups and Saturdays as well. Right now, we really

215
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 3: need children's items. We need kids coats, toddler coats, baby coats,

216
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,640

Speaker 1: your closet, if these clothes are not in the best condition,

225
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,800
Speaker 1: if it's all soiled. When you're doing these donations, it's

226
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: important to make sure that this is something you would

227
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:51,319
Speaker 1: put on your own child, or this is something you

228
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:52,680
