My Project

I am asking for bulk hygiene products to help my students start their day with fresh and clean teeth and clean hair and bodies.

Sometimes, when our basic needs are not met, people can struggle to make it through the day.

It is harder to make and keep friends, or to feel confident about learning if we are dirty or think others are picking on us. If we can remove some barriers for students, we can help them start their day off right!

If my students don't have to worry about some of the "little things" it can make the rest of their day a little bit easier. By having some of these hygiene items close by, we can help many students and do it discreetly and as often as we need to.
