Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

At our school, we like to help all our students in manage their own personal hygiene routines. We are requesting deodorants for our female and male students and menstrual pads for our female student population. Personal hygiene is a big part of staying healthy physically and emotionally. Poor hygiene may affect a child's physical and mental health. The practice of personal hygiene can also protect the health of others. Some of our students don't have access to these products. With your help, we will be able to stock our hygiene closet with the requested hygiene products, so students have immediate access to the products as they need them.
