My Project

This project will help me create individual hygiene kits for my students. Each kit will include basic personal care items such as deodorant, lotion, qtips, body wash , and other products.

These kits will be distributed discreetly and respectfully to students who need them, ensuring everyone has access to essential items that support personal hygiene and well-being.

Having these supplies readily available means no student has to feel embarrassed or distracted because of something as simple as not having deodorant or lotion. It’s one small step toward building confidence and helping every student feel their best at school.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
