My Project

By involving middle school students in a service project that addresses mental health, we are not only empowering them to take an active role in their own well-being but also educating and fostering a culture of support within our community.

This service project will help my students develop leadership, empathy, and responsibility while making a meaningful difference in the lives of those around them.

Around our country, thousands of our veterans are in the hospital facing many challenges. Oftentimes, these veterans do not have families to help or provide them with the needed personal care items. Our students are participating in a community service project to help these veterans to increase their sense of hope in the world.

To combat this, we aim to empower our middle school students to become mental health advocates within the community by creating a service project that addresses these issues head-on. We are asking for different hygiene items and reusable water bottles to create care packages for the veterans in need. We have also requested a rotating bookshelf to place in their waiting room for books to be placed for families waiting to see their loved ones.
