My Project

My students take great pride in looking and smelling good! Some families struggle to provide self-care items.

This project includes deodorant for my students in need.

Having self-care times on hand gives every student access with great fuss. Providing needed items helps my students feel better about their appearance. Lack of hygiene can lead to bullying and teasing. This bullying leaves children with hurt feelings and embarrassment.

The children love having items of their own that they can take home or leave in school. Once the children are well-fed, looking, feeling, and smelling great, they are ready to learn. Having deodorant available is an easy fix.
