My Students

Our school is a Title I school and many of our students are from poverty-stricken homes that have limited resources. Our students work hard in everything that they do and always give one hundred percent effort. Given an opportunity and a little bit of help can make an everlasting impact on their lives.

With the uprise of COVID, flu, stomach flu, and other viruses that have effecting our students, we must work harder to keep them healthy and safe and provide our students with basic items that many are doing without right now.

My Project

As the impact of COVID continues to reach all across the world, many of our students and their families continue to struggle financially and that includes purchasing simple necessities that they need.

In order to children to learn to the best of their ability, their basic needs must be met.

We want to provide them with basic hygiene products so that they do not have to worry about being made fun of, being dirty, or feeling insecure about their body.

Working together, we can provide students and their families with one less thing that they must worry about during these difficult times.
