Take What You Need

Help me give my students everything they need to feel like their best self in every way when they come to school.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Witt's classroom raised $663

This project is fully funded

My Project

The “Take What You Need” cabinet is a discreet, accessible space in my classroom filled with essential hygiene products—like deodorant, toothpaste, combs, band-aids, soap, and lotion—for students who may not have consistent access at home.

Many children face personal challenges that extend beyond school, and this cabinet helps ensure they feel clean, confident, and cared for.

Your donations directly support students’ well-being, dignity, and readiness to learn.

Every item you give is a message of love and support, reminding students they are not alone and that their needs truly matter.
