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

Teaching our students daily hygiene practices can lead to living a healthier lifestyle. Students are engaged in physical activities daily and supporting these materials will help give our students access. The feminine products will give our students free, accessible and quality products. Having access to tissues, hair ties, deodorant and face wipes will help our students to practice and develop healthy hygiene habits.

By donating these products, you help our students receive access to proper hygiene products and build a comfort zone at our school.

I specifically selected these products to help support our female students who may not have access to proper hygiene products. I also selected these products so my female students have a safe place to access. I currently run a female locker room and these products are essential to our daily needs.

Thank you!

Ms. Martinez San Jose High School Grades 9-12
