My Students

As the school counselor, one of my main responsibilities is to address the needs of the "whole child" and treat every student holistically. My students come with varying needs, and over 90% belong to impoverished homes. Their diverse cultures, needs, and experiences mean that one size does not fit all when it comes to guidance and counseling.

Due to their parents' economic status after Hurricane Maria and Irma and the fact that these children attend a Title I school where resources are limited, basic needs, such as access to school uniforms and school supplies, are always ongoing issues.

We are slowly receiving students impacted by Hurricane Maria, who need my assistance more than ever.

At my school, I wear many hats and I facilitate a vast diversity of students' and teachers' needs alike. Currently, the capacity of my school budget has been limited and challenged due to the impact of Hurricane Irma. As the school counselor, I take a very active role in my students' lives. I visit classrooms daily and give presentations that build character and educate the students about hygiene, core values, and social behavior.

My Project

Recently, we were fully funded through DonorsChoose.org and received numerous school uniforms, as well as formal outfits for our students who perform at competitions and concerts.

Currently, we do not have proper storage for these clothing items and we will need to secure the uniforms and formal wear, as well as preserve them.

We are requesting a portable wardrobe to store the new clothing. We also desperately need fifty proper hangers for the portable wardrobe on wheels. We need to transport the formal wear when the students have off-campus performances so the wardrobe on wheels would make it easier to carry. We also need to hang the uniforms after ironing, so that they would be ready to wear when we give them away.

Your donations will ensure that the new clothing we received for our students in need remains clean, portable, intact and secure.
