Helping Hygiene Happen!

Help me give my students experiencing hardship access to essential hygiene items at school!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Edwards Gerth's classroom raised $189

This project is fully funded

My Project

As a School Social Worker, I focus on supporting the physiological needs of all students. I want to ensure that any child who walks through my door has access to hygiene items that can help them look and feel their best.

Not all children have access to running water, laundry services and/or essential hygiene items.

I can’t control what happens to children when they are not at school, but I can do my best to support them when they are.

The items I am requesting through this project will help me meet the diverse and often urgent needs of my students, which is my top priority.
