Subject: Eta Sigma Gamma Menstrual Product Drive Description: Hello, I am reaching out to you on behalf of the Epsilon Chapter of Eta Sigma Gamma, a National Health Education Honorary consisting of students from the University of Maryland’s School of Public Health. We are working in collaboration with Girls Helping Girls Period to bring an end to period poverty in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. At Girls Helping Girls Period, they believe feminine hygiene is a matter of basic health and human dignity. They’re dedicated to educating people on the need, and collecting/distributing products. Together, we are asking for monetary donations to purchase period packs for girls living in poverty. The products will be distributed to women in need in the DC and Prince George’s County areas. Girls Helping Girls Period uses donations to create boxes with organic period products to distribute to girls in need. Each box costs $3.50 to make and allows a girl to be prepared for one month. Our goal is to raise $175 to create 50 kits for 50 girls. We want to engage the UMD community as much as possible, and we hope that students, friends, and family will be able to donate here: bepreparedperiod.com/donate/esg-period-drive/ Thank you again for your time and consideration. We are excited to bring the University of Maryland community together to do our part to end period poverty. “This problem needs recognition from anyone. It’s not just about girls helping girls, it’s about everyone helping each other.” - Quinn Joy, Girls Helping Girls Period Co-Founder.
