Help Me Keep My Homeless Scholars Safe

Help me give my students more sanitized protection as they travel to and from school and while they are in class.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Martin's classroom raised $257

This project is fully funded

My Students

I am the Family Student Resource Liaison at our school which has a non-profit 501 3(c) status. Our children are primarily from low income families and some reside in the neighborhood shelter.

We provide uniforms, hygiene products, and school supplies for the scholars that are living in shelters and low income families that cannot afford these items.

We also provide resume assistance & job search for parents.

My Project

We can provide them with the necessary sanitizing products to use in school and also when they have to work virtually.

They will have the necessary sanitizing products to use in the house to keep their computer, desk, chair and other items clean and sanitized.

The antibacterial soap will make sure their hands are getting cleaned properly, and the small bottles of sanitizer will also help them when they are traveling to and from school, and when they have to touch objects like the railings and doors on public transportation and getting in and out of the car.
