Hygiene Kits

Help me give my students who are economically disadvantaged some basic hygiene products. This is something I have been wanting to do but it is challenging to keep up with all the needs. Thank you in advance!

My Project

The supplies that I am requesting for my students will be used to meet their basic needs. I have heard and seen many undesirable living situations that students endure. I believe that looking good, smelling pleasant and general cleanliness will help students to feel their best and perform at their best.

In my cart are 30 pre-made hygiene kits for teens and feminine products for girls.

"Students do not care how much we know until they know how much we care." My simple goal is to show them that they are cared for and that their basic hygiene needs can be met.
