These students are often coming from living in refugee camps. They are struggling to adapt to a foreign culture, new city, and an unknown language. Hygiene isn't always at the forefront of their minds. These products will be for students to use at school (the tooth paste, toothbrushes, floss, and tissues) or to bring home (shampoo, body wash, conditioner, etc.). Students can't focus on their education if they aren't feeling clean and well taken care of. When students show up to school without having brushed their teeth or taken a shower, we can offer them these products so they can feel better.
