My Project

Greetings, supporters of education and compassion! We are seeking your assistance to fill our school's Care Closet with essential items that directly benefit our students in need. The Care Closet serves as a vital resource for our school community, offering support to students who require personal care items and other necessities.

Many of our students come to school without basic items due to financial hardships at home.

By stocking our Care Closet, we can ensure that these students have access to essential supplies, empowering them to focus on their education without the distraction of unmet personal needs.

Ms. Vogelsang
Grades 6-8
