CarePax are Song and Spirit’s answer to
“How can I help people living on the margins?”
CarePax are a one gallon, clear plastic bag
containing: a warm hat, a pair of warm gloves,
hand and toe warmers, a pair of new socks;
refillable water bottle, lip balm, toothbrush and
toothpaste.

Each CarePax also comes with a list of human
service resources for the tri-country metro
Detroit area. CarePax are distributed by groups
and individuals. If you wonder how best to
respond to someone asking for help on frigid,
winter days – now you can be readily equipped
to do so compassionately.
