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

Access to sanitary pads in a classroom setting is crucial for several reasons that directly impact the well-being and educational continuity of young students, particularly girls.

Overall, access to sanitary pads is vital for the health, education, and well-being of young students.

Firstly, it helps increase class attendance by reducing the number of days girls miss school due to menstruation. Secondly, sanitary pads are essential for maintaining good menstrual hygiene, which helps prevent infections and other health complications. Additionally, discussions and education about menstrual hygiene can foster empathy and create an inclusive environment. Providing sanitary pads also supports educational continuity by ensuring that girls do not fall behind in their studies.
