My Project

As the winter gets colder, our classroom is organizing a fundraiser to ensure all students have the essentials they need to stay warm, healthy, and nourished. Many students face challenges in accessing basic items like warm clothing, hygiene products, and snacks that help them focus and feel comfortable throughout the school day.

Through this initiative, we aim to provide every student with the resources they need to thrive in the classroom, both physically and emotionally.

We are requesting the following items:

Packable Puffer Jackets: Lightweight yet warm jackets to help students stay comfortable during colder days, especially during outdoor activities or walking to and from school.

Tissues & Deodorant: Personal hygiene products that promote comfort and well-being, ensuring students feel confident and healthy.

Toothpaste: A necessity for maintaining oral health and hygiene throughout the school year.

Various Snacks: Healthy snacks (granola bars, fruit snacks, crackers, etc.) to help keep students energized and focused, especially for those who may not have access to a reliable source of food outside of school.

Scarves, Mittens, Hats: Warm accessories that help protect students from the harsh winter weather, ensuring they stay safe and comfortable when outside.

Hair Gel and Hair Tools: Items that help students maintain personal grooming, promoting confidence and self-esteem.

By supporting this drive, you are directly helping create a more inclusive, supportive, and well-equipped classroom environment where every student can succeed. Donations can be made directly to the classroom or through our online fundraising page. Every little bit counts, and we are incredibly grateful for your generosity and support!
