Helping Homeless Children Stay Clean

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. C.'s classroom raised $2,353

This project is fully funded

I'm the Homeless Liaison at Tilden Career Community Academy High School. I have been the homeless liaison here for the past five years and each year I put on my wish list a washer and dryer for our homeless population here, but funding was cut and my washer and dryer died with the funding. If you could find in your heart to grant us a washer and dryer for our students who come to school everyday, to be out of the streets and to help them stay clean. We would be very happy and forever grateful. If any way possible you can make this wonderful thing happen for our homeless students, we would be very grateful. We know if you can make this happen it would truly be a blessing. Thanking you in advance!
