Hygiene Kits...The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Help me give my students hygiene kits as they learn how to properly take care of their bodies and stay healthy!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Jacques's classroom raised $767

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate 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

As our students are getting older, I want to be able to support their learning and understanding of how to properly take care of their bodies. Providing each 4th and 5th grade student with a hygiene kit will allow for hands-on learning and will also provide our students with hygiene essentials that some go without.

All of our classroom teachers will thank you!

We love all of our students, but there is nothing worse than picking up your class from the gym and having your classroom smell like sweaty preteens! Having these kits will help me provide hygiene essentials to students in need during our initial lessons as well as throughout the year.
