Collection ongoing for Project Period at UC until December 6

The 8th grade Leadership Class has launched Project Period, an initiative to enhance the quality of feminine hygiene products in our school bathrooms. While basic products are currently available, we are working to provide our students with higher-quality options. We're also collecting new underwear in all sizes.

How you can help: Donate new, unopened feminine hygiene products. Drop off items during morning carpool. Recommended Brands: Kotex U, Always, Playtex Sport, Tampax.

Collection dates: November 11 - December 6.

Your donations will help upgrade the products available to our students, ensuring they have access to the quality feminine hygiene items they prefer. Thank you for supporting this student-led initiative to enhance our existing resources.
