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

My goal is to ensure that every girl has access to necessary menstrual hygiene supplies, reducing absenteeism, and promoting confidence in young students.

Many middle school girls lack consistent access to period products, leading to missed school days, embarrassment, and health concerns.

By supplying these products, we can remove a barrier to education and empower students to focus on learning without worry. We asking for period care products and hygiene kits to provide students in need. Period Care for Middle School Girls is a project dedicated to providing essential period products, including pads, liners, and tampons. We seek funding to purchase and distribute these essential products in schools.

This project will provide essential support to middle school students, ensuring that menstruation does not hinder their education. Your funding will directly impact students’ well-being and academic success. We appreciate your consideration and look forward to making a difference together.
