The Button

The Button We operate with the Bulloch Co Schools to receive individual hygiene request from students through a weblink found within the school website.

Biannually large hygiene bags are made&given to students of greatest need as determined by school counselors. The Button is a 501-c3 corporation operating collaboratively with the Bulloch County School System to receive individual hygiene request from students through the use of a weblink found within the school website. Also, twice a year larger hygiene bags are made for students of greatest need

as determined by school counselors. The Button is currently active in all the middle and high schools
with plans to include the elementary this fall. Since beginning in March 2022 there have been 4,084 personal request made by students and over 95,000 hygiene items have been given out by The Button. One of the biggest factors toward the success of The Button is that the kids are able to keep their dignity. The students remain totally anonymous throughout this process, being solely identified by their lunch number. To ensure the student’s dignity the process of delivery is equally important. For this reason, each filled request is delivered in an unmarked bag, including 2 mints and a note that reads, “Thanks for making your request. Hope we were able to help brighten your day.”

The bags are delivered to the front office of the school where an adult sends a private message to that student’s 5th or 6th period teacher. It is very important that no attention be directed toward the student regarding their need, especially in front of their peers. The Button is currently active in the following locations:
William James Middle School
Portal Middle High School
Transitional Learning Center
Statesboro High School
Southeast Bulloch High School
Southeast Bulloch Middle
Social Workers within Bulloch County Board of Education. Additional schools will be added as we continue to receive donations and grow.

Thank you to the School Social Workers Association of Georgia for inviting The Button to your annual conference! We were honored to host an information table and connect with so many passionate professionals.

It was a huge success in sharing our mission and spreading awareness about hygiene poverty. We made meaningful connections and are already looking forward to coming back next year 💙

We’ll also be following up with the 40 counties that expressed interest in bringing The Button to their communities before June 1st.

At a recent packing event in Statesboro, volunteers came together with The Button to assemble 1,000 hygiene kits for Bulloch County students. These simple items, like shampoo, deodorant, and detergent, are helping students show up with confidence, dignity, and a renewed sense of self.
