Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help me give my students the availability of body soap to help them alleviate much unnecessary stress and prepare them for school. I am asking for a few hygiene items to help my students who may not have at home. Some are embarrassed to come to school, the ones that do get made fun of. I buy things for them out of pocket, but the cost can get excessive. Children should not go through their day feeling as if they are not clean. It makes it hard for them to focus on their daily tasks and distracts them from learning. We will be grateful for any amount of help. Thank you in advance for everything.
