Hygiene Closet

Help me give my students and their families storage cabinets with resources for their hygiene needs.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Rodriguez's classroom raised $1,003

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The school I work at is a K-8 elementary school. The students and families we work with are fun, energetic, and inspiring; they also often experience need and suffer through considerable hardship and homelessness. When students and families are experiencing hardships, students' education is impacted significantly. We, as Family Engagement Specialists who work and service PES students and families, want to create hygiene closets to ensure the basic needs of our students and families are met.

The Deodorant, Diapers, Toilet Paper, Baby Wipes and other basic products that your donation will provide will make a significant difference!
