Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

As the school year comes to a close, our students face uncertainty about access to basic hygiene items during the summer months. This project aims to address this need by providing essential hygiene items such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, and deodorant to students from low-income families. By ensuring access to these items, we can empower students to maintain their personal hygiene and confidence even when away from school.

Access to basic hygiene items can make a significant difference in a student's self-esteem, health, and overall well-being.

With your help, we can ensure that every student has the opportunity to start the summer with confidence and dignity.
