My Project

Having hygienic products in my classroom will help my students to have confidence. I know many students who can not afford the basic needs. I am sure that this has a huge effect on how they socialize. If a student knows that they are putting off an odor it will hurt them emotionally. My students have a lot going on at home, the last thing I want is them feeling insecure in school. Not only with this have a negative effect on their confidence, but it will distract them from their studies.

Worrying about what others think of you is something every teenager deals with.

Knowing that they have a place to go and get products that will help them be cleaner is an easy fix. It is one thing that I can do something about, and I would love your help to do that.
