FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Shannon's classroom raised $389

My Students

Our school has about 250 students in 4-6th grade. We are a family and learn daily how to care for our self. Our students come from many different backgrounds. They love to learn and ask questions. My students show what they learn by helping others out.

My Project

We are creating puberty packs. Giving students personal deodorants and feminine products encourage proper use. These are going to be given to students during puberty class this year. Having the product encourages questions about human development and promotes use. Also makes the class more exciting.

Puberty- embarrassing, but, EVERYONE goes through it.

Due to Covid manufacturers no longer give samples. Creating these little packs make the kids feel special during an embarrassing class. Lets get feminine products and deodorants to the kids! Leaving a few extra in the nurse's office helps for when the girls forgot or ran out of feminine supplies.
