Germs Away

Help me give my students wipes, tissue, Lysol, hand sanitizer, to stay clean

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Chambliss's classroom raised $415

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are curious, energetic first graders who love to learn, explore, and grow together each day. But with so many little hands touching supplies, desks, and shared spaces, germs can spread quickly and lead to missed school days.

By donating essential sanitation items like Clorox disinfecting wipes, Lysol disinfectant spray, facial tissues, and hand sanitizer, you're helping us keep our classroom clean and our students healthy.

These products allow us to regularly wipe down surfaces, freshen the air, safely catch sneezes, and keep little hands germ-free throughout the day.

With your support, we can spend more time learning and less time out sick. Your generosity means our classroom stays a happy, healthy place to grow!
