My Project

Many of my female students face challenges accessing basic feminine hygiene products, which can impact their comfort, confidence, and even attendance.

By providing essential items like pads, tampons, and wipes, we can help ensure they feel supported and can focus on learning without worry or embarrassment.

Your donation will make a meaningful difference in creating a more equitable and inclusive classroom environment. These supplies will empower students to take care of their personal needs with dignity, allowing them to show up fully in class every day. Thank you for helping our students feel seen, respected, and prepared.
