My Project

There is nothing quite like being able to be the classroom that every student on campus knows they can come to when in need! We have set up a confidential system where my TA's and other students have communicated to the rest of the student body that our class is a safe place to go to when they are having a feminine or hygiene emergency!

Your donation of feminine hygiene and toiletry kits will help dozens of female students not have to worry about being caught off guard for their cycles or overall hygiene needs.

These feminine hygiene and toiletry kits will help to show our students how much we value their success and are willing to do whatever we need to ease financial burdens and to help curb period poverty. The students and families have enough to worry about with education during this post-pandemic era and life in general. This grant will ensure that they know that we are doing our best to provide the essential health needs that they might otherwise not be able to afford. Let's help our students and families feel supported!
