We need your HELP in collecting MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS to combat period poverty in Hartford Public Schools and Hartford youth programs. Your help can ensure that students in need have access to menstrual products and education.
If you are able to spread the word or donate, we are accepting Venmo donations through the QR code in the flyer (please write "menstrual donation" in the Venmo notes). We are also accepting drop-off in-person donations in our office at 195 Farmington Avenue Suite 2100 or mail-in donations.
Pads are most needed. See the flyer for more details. As we gear up for the Spring semester, donations are appreciated before December 19th.
Your donation will support the work of the Hartford Health Education Program in which medical and dental students teach health education, such as puberty, nutrition, sexual health, positive relationships, and mental health to Hartford students. Thank you!
