Our students are usually able to work only part time jobs because they are full time students. The money they make can often go toward helping family members with house supplies, rent, and taking care of younger siblings. They often have to buy their own clothes and food. It is difficult to make ends meet when also attending school.
As the school social worker, I have a closet in which I maintain various supplies that students can access when there's something they need to help make their day successful. This project will help restore snacks and feminine hygiene products.
Additionally most of the students travel an hour or more on public transportation to and from school. Buses and trains are often delayed in the winter, making their travels even longer. This project will also supply them with gloves to help keep them warm on their commute.
