Helping Hands for Hygiene

Help me give my students their own individual hygiene kits to help students feel clean, cared for, and ready to learn.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Edmonds's classroom raised $554

My Project

Many of our 4th and 5th grade students come to school without access to basic hygiene items like deodorant, toothpaste, feminine products, and soap. These essentials can make a big difference in their confidence, comfort, dignity and emotional well-being.

By providing each student with a hygiene kit, we can help students feel clean, cared for, and ready to learn.

Your support will meet a real need and help our students thrive!

This project also helps students build lifelong habits around self-care and personal hygiene, which are essential for their health and independence. Together, we can ensure every student feels valued, respected, and prepared to succeed.
