Hygiene Matters

Help me give my students important hygiene items to freshen up after PE/Health classes. Unfortunately, my school doesn’t have showers; therefore, providing deodorant & full body wipes will help to keep body care in tact and avoid bullying.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Being a PE/Health teacher, after class students always seek items to refresh themselves for the rest of the day. I try to keep mild perfumes and lotions in my desk to assist them.

This project will provide individual hygiene items to distribute to scholars as needed.

Simply being able to provide cleansing wipes, deodorant, and body spray will spare those students with stronger body odor developments from occurring and being teased or embarrassed.

When you look good & feel good, you are more confident and can perform best. You can focus on tasks at hand, versus being worried about if you’re carrying an odor from exercising in the previous class.

Please help me to provide this saving grace for my scholars.
