Help me give my students access to personal hygiene items to help them feel comfortable at school.

FULLY FUNDED! Dr. Linquist's classroom raised $513

My Project

We are requesting personal hygiene items to help support our displaced students. Our students can struggle to gain access to basic needs such as body wash and toothpaste.

Having consistent access to basic hygiene items can help our students be successful in and out of the classroom.

Our displaced students seek support from the counseling department at our school. We currently have a need for hygiene items and this donation can help us better support our students. When students have their basic needs met, they are able to focus more on their academics.
