My Project

I am teaching a really special group of middle school students in the city of Richmond, VA. They come from so many different backgrounds, cultures, and socioeconomic situations. I don't ever want anyone in my class to feel uncomfortable or want for any basic need.

Middle school is such a difficult time for students, and I want to make it a little better by providing hygiene items and a private cart to store it all.

These items will include soap, deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrush, tampons, pads, and other hygiene items for all students. All these items will be mini and individually wrapped so students can have them and remain sanitary and confidential.

Mrs. Ross Albert Hill Middle School Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
