Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Feeling fresh and clean is so important to be happy, healthy and ready to learn! As the school nurse at My Elementary school, I hope to help supply students with some basic hygiene products at home so they can feel their best when they come to school.

This spring I would like to assemble approximately 30 hygiene kits to keep in the clinic and distribute as needed.

Items include shampoo, soap, toothpaste and toothbrushes, deodorant, etc. Your contribution will give our students the confidence they deserve to feel their best each day at school!
