Hygiene Heroes: Keeping It Clean

Help me give my students the essential support they need to raise awareness of hygiene-related challenges.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Mayoros's classroom raised $500

My Project

For some third and fourth-graders, family financial constraints prevent them from accessing basic hygiene products and understanding the importance of personal cleanliness. As a result, these students may face social stigma and academic challenges due to hygiene-related issues.

The "Hygiene Heroes: Keeping it Clean" project aims to address hygiene-related issues by enlisting dedicated students who will advocate for cleanliness and provide essential products to students in need.

Hygiene heroes are student leaders who are passionate about promoting cleanliness and empowering their peers to take pride in their hygiene habits. These heroes will engage in various activities that raise awareness, including:

1. Creating Posters: Hygiene heroes will design visually engaging posters that emphasize the importance of cleanliness and proper hygiene practices. These posters will be displayed throughout the school to serve as constant reminders for students.

2. Making Hygiene Kits: Hygiene Heroes will assemble hygiene kits containing essential items such as body wash, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, and deodorant, as well as laundry detergent. These kits will be distributed to students in need, ensuring that they have access to the necessary items for maintaining good hygiene.

The "Hygiene Heroes: Keeping it Clean" project has the potential to make a significant impact on the lives of third and fourth-graders facing hygiene-related challenges. By providing access to hygiene kits and promoting awareness, we can: boost students' self-esteem and confidence, improve overall health and well-being, and foster a supportive and inclusive school environment.

Together, let's make cleanliness a priority and ensure that every child has the opportunity to thrive.
