My Project

I am requesting hygiene items that will help make my students feel fresh and clean throughout each and every school day. So many children in our school do not have the essentials in order to feel clean and fresh for school so I am hoping to be able to provide these necessary items to those that can't afford them.

At this age (5th grade) other children really begin to notice hygiene and I wouldn't like any student to ever feel like they are being teased or bullied due to their appearance.

These items will help them feel ready to learn in school!
