Make Sports Bras Available to Jefferson Students

We are starting an initiative to make accessing sports bras easier for Jefferson High School students in Portland, Oregon. We are a Community Eligible Provisions school which designates our students to receive free breakfast and lunch based on enrolling a high number of low income students.

We are fortunate to have multi sport and dance opportunities for our students but know that breast development and lack of a sports bra may contribute to lower participation of girls and non-binary individuals in athletics or cause them to drop out of athletics.

Our hope is to provide a year round resource. We envision doing a bra event for Fall, Winter and Spring sports and also having some on hand that our school counselors, social workers and athletic coaches could access as needed.

We have a starting goal of raising money/receiving donations for 250 bras. We invite you to come together with us to make sports bras more accessible for our students.

All money received will be used to purchase sports bras to be distributed to Jefferson students.

Thank you for your consideration!
