My Project

Our school likes to make our students feel comfortable. When a student is physically comfortable they are open to learn and be a part of our school community. But things happen and when those THINGS happen we always want to help with dignity and provide that student with the items they need.

Having the essentials can change a student's day.

We always want our students to have the basics so that they can be successful and sometimes those basics are hard to come by. Having underclothing and hygiene items on hand so that our students are treated with the dignity and respect they deserve is a game changer.
