Surviving High School With Good Hygiene!

Help me give my students the resources they need to have healthy hygiene.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Cunningham's classroom raised $266

This project is fully funded

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

The materials and supplies that I am requesting will be used to supply each child with the basic tools to provide them with healthy hygiene. The children at my school have emotional and behavioral disabilities. Teaching our students the importance of good hygiene is essential to their success in and outside of the school building. These supplies will be packaged together and kept in a safe place inside the school building for students to use at anytime when they need such products. Along with these "hygiene kits", students will be apart of a small group discussion to go over how to use each item provided to them. The students would benefit greatly if given the opportunity to receive these hygiene kits.
