My Project

Our middle school needs help in establishing a personal hygiene locker. Our goal is to address a critical need for essential personal hygiene products among middle school students, ensuring they have access to items that promote cleanliness, comfort, and dignity.

Middle school marks a transitional period in a young person's life, where they are navigating significant physical, emotional, and social changes.

Amid these changes, hygiene and cleanliness is often overlooked, and students arrive at school without a shower or deodorant or even clean clothing.

Addressing these challenges often involves creating a supportive environment that educates and encourages good hygiene practices. Providing easy access to hygiene products, fostering open discussions about hygiene, and promoting a culture that values self-care and cleanliness can all contribute to helping middle school students prioritize their personal hygiene. We sincerely believe that the establishment of a Personal Hygiene Locker will significantly enhance the well-being and confidence.

This free locker shop would provide items to students in a discreet but accessible manner. This locker would provide various essential personal hygiene products tailored for both boys and girls.

The personal hygiene locker foster a supportive and inclusive environment that promotes self-care and confidence. Teacher volunteers would ensure equitable access to hygiene products for all students, regardless of financial constraints.
