Celebrating 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
Every student deserves to feel confident and healthy, but many of our young learners struggle to access basic personal hygiene essentials. This project aims to provide our students with essential hygiene products, including hair care items, deodorant, toothbrushes, and skin care products. By ensuring that every student has access to these necessities, we can foster a positive and supportive learning environment where they can focus on their education without the worry of personal hygiene.
For many of our students, personal hygiene can be a challenge due to financial constraints.
Without proper access to hygiene products, students may feel embarrassed, lack confidence, or even face bullying. This can significantly impact their mental well-being and academic performance. By providing these essential items, we can help students feel good about themselves and create a more inclusive environment that promotes learning and self-esteem.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
