My Project

We are collecting essential clothing supplies and hygiene products (toothbrushes, soap, puffer jackets, sweatpants, deodorant, etc...) for our middle school students.

Many students at our school need support getting the clothing they need to be warm, comfortable and clean everyday.

We've gathered an amazing collection of donated items and are looking for Donor's Choose supporters to help fill the gaps - mostly basic items and coats. In addition, students are frequently seeking basic hygiene items.

Thank you for helping us support our students basic needs. We know that when students have their essential needs met, they can better thrive and succeed in the classroom. With winter coming, we need your help getting the basics so that our students are safe and comfortable during the Seattle winter season.
