The Free Period Talk Project is having its annual Period Product Drive! They are collecting menstrual hygiene products to stock the Hingham High School bathrooms with free period products, ensuring all students have equitable access to the supplies they need. Donations of pads, tampons, and liners of all sizes are greatly appreciated, with a particular need for tampons. Every donation helps eliminate a barrier to learning and makes a significant difference in the daily lives of students. Please drop off these products in the bin labeled “Free Period Talk Drive” near the main entrance. The drive is taking place now through November 21st. We thank you for your support.
