My Project

At our Middle School, we believe that no student should have to miss class or feel uncomfortable due to a lack of essential hygiene products. This project aims to provide period products, including pads, liners, and tampons, to support our students’ health, confidence, and overall well-being. By ensuring access to these necessities, we are promoting equity, dignity, and uninterrupted learning for all students. Many students at our school face financial hardships that make it difficult to access basic hygiene products. When students do not have the necessary period products, they may miss school, experience discomfort, or struggle to focus in class. By creating a safe, discreet, and easily accessible supply of period products, we empower students to focus on their education without added stress or embarrassment.
