Self Care Closet Materials

Help me give my students access items that they may not have the opportunity to elsewhere. I want to create a "self-care cabinet" in our classroom so that middle schoolers have access to snacks and hygiene materials.

My Project

I am hoping to create a self-care closet area within my middle school classroom so that my 7th and 8th grade students, as well as anyone else in our school, has access to snacks if they are hungry and hygiene materials. Supplying these materials in bulk can get very expensive. Within our self care closet I am hoping to provide access to feminine products, personal care and hygiene items, and small snacks. Students cannot succeed if their basic needs are not being met. Any and all donations are such a huge help! We are all so grateful!
