My Project

My students are motivated students who struggle with behavioral and academic challenges. Many of my students do not have the basic needs that many students across the country have as it relates to necessities to support their hygiene and wellness.

Many of my students, who come from lower-income households, struggle with having hygiene products as well as a means to consistently come to school with appropriate and clean clothing.

They also come to school hungry, and it affects their focus and overall attitude.

Your donation will ensure that not only does every student receive their own hygiene kit which will include deodorant, sanitizer, lotion, and sanitary pads, but it would also allow me to help them learn how to appropriately wash their clothes. In addition, your donation would allow my students to have snacks throughout the day to help increase positive behavior and mindset. Thank you in advance for your help!
