Sources state that 78 percent of girls with low self-esteem admit that it is hard to feel good in school when you do not feel good about how you look. I am choosing to do a Donors Choose in hopes to fund a new club, a student hair club! Low self-esteem among girls is a problem most face at some time in their lives. Once formed, this negative view permeates every thought, which can produce ongoing self-defeating behavior. Research shows that a girl's self-esteem peaks at age 9, then takes a dive. The hair products and accessories I am asking for will help my students start their day off on a positive note: learning basic hair care, tips and tricks in hopes to help with self-care, self-esteem and building lasting friendships! The products chosen will be used in the club, but given to the students to take home to use at their leisure. They can bring the items back to school to continue learning and growing.
