Help Empower My Female Students!

Help me give my students the confidence to be proud being a female!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. O.'s classroom raised $1,138

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are growing everyday, mentally, physically and physiologically . Students this age are starting their period and often times have accidents at school. I want to make a safe space for them to have access to feminine hygiene products. No student should come to school and be embarrassed to ask for products or help if one leaks.

Feminine hygiene products should be easily available to all students that need it.

With the small bags of products available, students can ask with confidence and be able to take their items to the next class. If someone leaks, we will have options so they can easily clean up and move on with less embarrassment.
