Help me give my students needed tissue for the whole entire school year!

My Project

You wouldn't believe that tissue can be a major issue in school, but it can. We have a lot of students who have issues with allergies during the fall and spring. Don't even get me started on flu and cold season. We have some parents that generously provide a few boxes at the beginning of the year, but they are used up pretty quickly. That leaves the teacher purchasing at least two to three boxes a week to provide the needed tissues for the classroom.

Any help you could provide with purchasing Kleenexes would be greatly appreciated.

Your generosity and help would be greatly appreciated to help combat the allergy, flu, and cold season.
