Provide Less Fortunate Teens Menstrual Supplies

Hi! We are Ellie and Isla, 9th graders in Austin, TX. We are partnering with Dignity Grows, a national organization providing much-needed menstrual and hygiene supplies to women and teens in underprivileged communities. By offering basic personal hygiene supplies every month, they empower women and remove barriers to improve health and self-esteem. Many of these women cannot afford enough menstrual supplies to fulfill their needs. And we want to help.

Dignity Grows provides free, reusable zipper-top totes stocked with a month's worth of menstrual products, as well as soap, shampoo, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste and shaving cream and razor kits. These goods are not covered by federal grant programs and are not often donated to food banks, making the need for these items more dire.

Each of these kits costs roughly $17, and we are hoping to raise $5,000 to allow us to distribute approximately 290 kits to young females in need. Please help us reach our goal! Any amount is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your help!
