Feminine Hygiene Products!

Help me give my students feminine products for their periods. Most of my students are just entering the stage of life when they are getting the period and need extra care.

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

Dear donors,

thank you so much for considering in donating to our project for feminine hygiene products.

My students are just entering that stage where they are starting their periods and need extra support in taking care. These pads will give my students the chance to have a resource that is safe and hygienic for them to use and get at the school.

I really appreciate your donation to make this process and a part of life easier for my students. The safe place of feminine products and knowing that they are available for my students will be such a relief for them.

Thank you for your donation and support.
