My Project

Hello! I am looking for essential items to help meet our students' everyday needs. I am requesting deodorant, toothbrushes, sweatshirts, and mittens for students to use. These may seem like small requests, but for our students these are big deals.

We know our students' basic needs have to be met before they can learn.

When students come to school without proper winter gear and are cold, they can't focus on learning. We also know that elementary school is where we start building healthy habits for our students. Having deodorant and toothbrushes for our students who do not have access at home is so important.
