The ARHS Women’s Rights Club is commencing their annual Pad and Tampon drive for the Amherst Survival Center. The drive directly supports members of our community and raises awareness at ARHS around issues that adversely impact all women like the “pink tax” and general inaccessibility of menstrual products (“Did you know people typically spend over $18,000 on period products over a lifetime??).

How can we help?

DONATE to the DRIVE: Send in or bring unopened packages of menstrual pads or tampons. There are donation boxes around the high school. The drive will run now through mid-December. (Note: Pads are preferred by ASC).

SUPPORT the BAKE SALE on 11/20: Bring/send in money or bring/send unopened packages of menstrual pads or tampons. One unopened box of products = one baked good! All awareness raised supports a more equitable world, and all proceeds go to support the Amherst Survival Center.

ASK YOUR KIDS about the drive to help spread awareness. Please spread the word, too!
