My Project

I am a language arts remediation teacher for a local middle school with over 100 students where I allow all students to have access to anything they may need in the care closet.

I have a care closet set up for students to have a snack, an easy dinner, and self-care items like shampoo, body wash, or a change of clothes.

These kiddos are so used to having to be worried about where these items come from and/or if they will ever have access to them. It is so blissful to see their faces light up when these items are already available to them. My kids have the biggest hearts and deserve the world.

Your donation will help keep the care closet up and running and help these teenagers have access to things they are not used to getting.

My students are so grateful for everything in the care closet and often ask if one day when they are stable if they can contribute back to it. I want to thank you for your donation to make a difference in these kids' lives.
