Help me give my students snacks and personal hygiene products to support their basic needs, allowing them to focus on their academic success without unnecessary distractions
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. W's classroom raised $379
This project is fully funded
Celebrating 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
The snacks and personal hygiene products will help meet my students' basic needs, improving their focus and well-being. When students are not distracted by hunger or discomfort, they can fully engage in their learning and participate in class more effectively.My goal is to create a supportive learning environment by ensuring students have access to essentials like food and hygiene products, fostering both academic performance and a positive school experience. This initiative aims to reduce barriers to learning, allowing all students to focus on their education. My students are resilient, eager to learn, and bring diverse perspectives and experiences to the classroom. Despite facing many challenges, they show perseverance and a strong desire to succeed academically and personally, making their growth and success truly inspiring.
More than half of students from low‑income households
