FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Caitlin's classroom raised $551

My Project
Hi! I go by Ms. Caitlin to the students at O’Keeffe Elementary. Before working here I attended cosmetology school and I still pursue this career outside of being a Special Education Classroom Assistant. I think being a cosmetologist is a great career, especially for someone who wants their own business. The only thing I would’ve done differently is learn about doing hair earlier in life. This is why starting this program would be amazing because the kids will get to experience this much sooner than I did and can have an idea of what they might be interested in doing as a career when they grow up.
Creating a cosmetology program at O’Keefe will be great for kids to experience what is involved when it comes to doing hair.
This program can create great professionalism and customer service skills at an early age. I hope to get as many donations for this program as possible because it can truly help the future of our kids.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
