Water Bottles for Students

Help me give my students reusable water bottles they can bring to school each day!

My Project

My goal is to provide each of my students with a reusable water bottle. Many of our student's families do not have the financial means to obtain a reusable water bottle for school. Some of the students go all day with only a sip or 2 from the water fountain.

As the school nurse I know that dehydration from lack of water can increase headaches and missed time out of class.

I would like the students to have access to this basic need. Your assistance is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
