This website is for the project, Laker Locker. With this project, I am trying to reach out to the students of Lakeland High School and get them supplies that they need. We carry things like personal hygiene supplies, school supplies, some non-perishable food items, and other basic needs all for the students at Lakeland High School.

School should feel like a safe environment. With the help of the Laker Locker we can get students the things they need, without the fear of embarrassment.

Stats on Poverty |
Why? |
Over 19% of Indiana’s children under the age of 18 are victims of poverty as of 2017 (C., 2017). When dealing with problems like this it makes it hard for students to concentrate on their school work and classes.

Throughout my middle/high school career I had many friends that were incapable of getting many of these things for themselves. Even when the schools offered them options they wouldn't want to ask in fear of embarrassment. This anonymous outlet lets students ask for the supplies they need without the fear of embarrassment or guilt.
