Feminine Hygiene Drive
Office Manager
The NCBW-GHAC and Public Policy Committee collected 8,000 individual feminine products for 4 school districts and the remainder went to homeless shelters for women and teenage girls, in our first year hosting this drive. We also drafted a bill soliciting our representatives, Neal Rafferty, Rolanda Hollis, and Laura Hall to impose a Pink Tax on feminine hygiene products due to the number of women who cannot afford feminine hygiene products which are a basic necessity.
