My Project

I am a Bridging the Gap Social Worker and I work with students who reside in temporary housing. Last year I was able to have a hygiene product drive/workshop where 50 students were provided with hygiene products to take home and learned about the importance of good hygiene. I want to be able to have this for my student this year because they really enjoyed the experience and the free hygiene products after the workshop. I want students to get excited about the way they feel and look. I want my students and temporary housing to have the same resources and materials other students have.
