During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, schools received essential funding to support student health, including provisions for tissues, sanitizing supplies, and other healthcare necessities. Now, that funding has disappeared—but the need remains. Without tissues in the classroom, students are left struggling with runny noses, sneezes, and coughs, increasing the risk of illness and absence. By supporting this project, you can help keep our students in the classroom, learning comfortably.
Our classroom needs boxes of tissues to help students manage their health throughout the class period.
Especially during cold and flu season or during the peak of seasonal allergies, these small but vital supplies make a big difference in maintaining attendance and supporting a clean, healthy learning environment.
Without proper supplies, students often miss out on valuable instruction time due to discomfort or illness. Many families are unable to provide classroom donations, and with the loss of COVID-era funding, schools are struggling to meet this basic need. Tissues might seem small, but they play a crucial role in keeping students focused and engaged in learning.
Your donation will provide our students with the simple but powerful tool of tissues, helping us keep illness at bay and ensuring every student has what they need to stay in the classroom and succeed.
Thank you for making a difference in our classroom!
