My Project

I am a school counselor in a Title I funded, low-income community in Brooklyn, New York. We are a diverse community with many different educational needs. Our vision is to rise above educational expectations, to rise to be educational explorers and innovators, to rise to be leaders in life, rise to meet the needs of our families, and to rise to ensure that every child has an opportunity for success.

This year has been a very hard year for my kids as they are struggling with basic hygiene.

Please help to provide my students with hygiene supplies such as body wash and oral hygiene supplies for optimal learning and success in school. My students sometimes lack basic materials to keep themselves healthy and clean, and this is something that can be provided and make them feel more confident in their everyday at school.

Some of my students come to school without being able to properly care for themselves and that makes it difficult to concentrate. I try to maintain supplies to ensure my students are feeling confident and ready to learn. Thank you for all your donations.
