Without access to proper hygiene products and education, many students face physical discomfort, embarrassment, and increased absenteeism. These challenges not only interfere with academic progress but also weigh heavily on students' mental health and overall well-being.\r\n\r\nSchools have a vital role in breaking down barriers. By providing access to sanitary products or hygiene items, we ensure that no student has to miss class because of a basic need. When girls are supported in this way, they are empowered to stay engaged in school, thrive academically, and build the confidence needed to succeed in life.\r\n\r\nYour generosity helps make this possible. With your support of this project, our students gain consistent access to the supplies they need to be present, comfortable, and ready to learn every day. Thank you for making a meaningful difference in the lives of our students. Thank you for helping fostering a more caring, supportive, and equitable learning environment for all.","fullyFundedDate":1739455218431,"projectUrl":"project/hygiene-health/8969003/","projectTitle":"Hygiene Health","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Haug","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5859486_orig.jpg?crop=2092,2093,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1732630591728","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5859486"},{"teacherId":5859486,"projectId":9141790,"letterContent":"On behalf of the students at Washington High School, I want to extend our gratitude for your contribution to our hygiene and clothing supplies. Your support and donation is making a profound difference in the lives of our students, and we are deeply appreciative of your generosity.\r\n\r\nMany of our students face challenges related to hygiene and access to clean clothing. These struggles can result in physical discomfort, social stigma, and unfortunately, increased absenteeism. When students miss school due to these issues, it impacts not only their academic progress, but also their mental health and overall well-being. With your kindness, we are able to provide access to sanitary products and laundered clothing, helping to remove barriers that prevent students from fully participating in school.\r\n\r\nWith your generous donation, our students have the resources they need to attend school every day, feeling confident and supported. Your kindness directly contributes to developing an inclusive, supportive, and healthy learning environment.\r\n\r\nBy supporting this project, you are helping to create an environment that goes beyond academics. You are showing our students that they are valued and that their well-being matters. This is a powerful message that will resonate with them for years to come, empowering them to focus on their education and contribute positively to society.\r\n\r\nOnce again, thank you for your incredible support. Together, we are making a lasting impact on the lives of our students, and we are incredibly grateful for your partnership in this important work.","fullyFundedDate":1746786425997,"projectUrl":"project/basic-need-items/9141790/","projectTitle":"Basic Need Items","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Haug","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp5859486_orig.jpg?crop=2092,2093,x0,y0&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1732630591728","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/5859486"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_37819","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":379,"numTeachers":42,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":89,"percentWhite":1,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":3,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"9 - 12","studentTeacherRatio":"9.0:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":69.0,"schoolId":37819,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Washington Info Technical High School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Washington Info Technical High School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/wisconsin/milwaukee-public-schools/whs-information-technology/37819"}
