My Project
Student athletes in poverty-stricken areas face unique challenges that make access to proper washing detergent crucial. Many students in low-income areas may not have the resources to regularly purchase new sports gear or uniforms. Without a reliable detergent, their athletic clothes may become too dirty or damaged to be used consistently, impacting their performance and confidence. Dirty clothes, especially after rigorous physical activity, can harbor bacteria, fungi, and unpleasant odors. Without access to detergent, student athletes risk skin infections, irritations, or other health issues that can affect both their athletic performance and overall well-being.
Clean uniforms foster a sense of pride and unity among student athletes.
When athletes have access to detergent, they can feel more professional and motivated, which enhances their performance on and off the field. In summary, washing detergent is not just a basic necessity for hygiene, but a critical resource that enables student athletes in poverty-stricken areas to compete, stay healthy, and feel empowered in both their athletic and academic endeavors.
More than half of students from low‑income households
