Celebrate Black Teachers and Students
This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Students in our school do not have financial conditions to bring tissues to school when they have a cold. So the first thing they do is to ask a teacher for a tissue so they can avoid using their hands or clothes to clean themselves after they sneeze.
When students ask for something to blow and clean their noses, we give them brown hand towels which are not comfortable. Students will use these tissues to clean their nose avoiding them to use the industrial hand towels which are coarse and rough.
Top rated for efficiency and transparency.
You donate directly to the teacher or project you care about and see where every dollar you give goes.
