Help me give my students access to feminine period products and books about the menstrual cycle.

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

Menstrual equity is a necessity that all individuals should have access to. All students need affordable and safe period products in addition to comprehensive menstrual health education. Unfortunately, many students in our community face barriers when it comes to managing their menstrual health, which can impact their attendance, participation, and overall well-being.

This project aims to provide accessible period products to students, ensuring they have the necessary resources to manage their menstrual health.

We can work together to put an end to period poverty, advance gender equality, and establish a safe and welcoming learning environment for all students. Your support can have a profound impact on the lives of my students. By donating, you can help to meet their immediate needs and enable them to focus on their studies, allowing them to excel academically.
