My Project
Help my students feel confident and ready to learn by providing essential hygiene items and uniforms so they can walk into class with pride and peace of mind.
My Students:
My 2nd grade classroom is filled with bright, creative, and determined scholars who are eager to learn and grow. Many of them come from families experiencing financial hardship, and the basics—like deodorant, clean socks, toothbrushes, or hair care—can be hard to come by. Despite their circumstances, these students show up, do their best, and inspire me daily with their resilience.
My Project:
This Fresh Start project will provide personal hygiene items (deodorant, toothbrushes, toothpaste, hair care products, and body wash), as well as gently worn or new uniform essentials like shirts, pants, socks, and underwear.
These items help more than just appearances. When children feel clean, comfortable, and confident, they participate more, smile bigger, and focus better. This is about dignity and empowerment—and creating a classroom where every child feels safe, respected, and cared for.
Why It Matters:
When basic needs are met, everything changes. Students no longer worry about being teased or distracted by discomfort. Instead, they feel prepared, present, and proud. Your donation supports their confidence—and confidence fuels learning.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
