Empowering Young Girls!

Funded Jan 4, 2024

During our human growth and development lesson with our 5th grade girls, it's customary for me to encourage them to keep a pack of personal hygiene supplies in their bag, but never have we been able to actually provide these to the girls.

It's easy to forget that some students are not as fortunate to have families who talk to them and provide them with things like this and by your generous donation we were able to provide every girl with the products and supplies they need to be confident and comfortable with their changing bodies.

The girls were, at first, a little hesitant to share this experience of creating their period packs together and were a little shy. By the end of the lesson and the creation of the packs, they were laughing, smiling and asking more questions.

Your generous donation has provided these girls with an opportunity to feeling control of their situation and be prepared for what comes their way. They will know their friends are all in the same position and this will foster unity and comradery between them.

You've given each girl an equal playing field and they were surprised the strangers would do something so kind for them.

Thank you again for your support.”

With gratitude,

Mrs. Dawson
