My Project

This project aims to ensure that all students have access to the basic resources—clean clothing and classroom materials—necessary for their comfort, well-being, and academic success. By addressing these basic needs, we can remove barriers that might otherwise hinder students from fully engaging in school and thriving in the classroom environment.

Create a supportive, non-stigmatizing environment where students receive help discreetly, ensuring they feel comfortable and dignified in receiving support.

Foster a sense of belonging and confidence by making sure every student has the resources they need to engage in learning without feeling embarrassed or distracted by material or clothing limitations.
