Feminine Hygiene Essentials

Help me give my students essentials to aid with feminine hygiene in the locker room.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Atencio's classroom raised $414

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Middle school is a significant time for changes in the body. While these changes can be scary, it's important for students to know they are not the only ones and there are people who can help.

We want to make feminine hygiene essentials easily accessible to all female students in the locker room.

We want to make the locker room a safe space to help female students experiencing changes by providing support emotionally and by providing materials that the students may not have access readily available at home or at school.
