The School of Education and Human Development is launching an initiative to support students who are facing food and hygiene insecurities. This month, the school is holding a hygiene product drive to stock and distribute these items to our community members.

Lacking the essential basics such as soap, toothpaste, feminine hygiene products, and diapers for infants plays a crucial part in a person’s well-being and the well-being of their family.

This is a great opportunity to support the community by donating new, unopened hygiene products. The main drop off location for donations will be outside of the Office of Admissions and Students Affairs – Ruffner Hall, 102 beginning Monday, November 4th - November 27th.

Eligible items – please do not drop off used items:
Baby wipes
Body soap (full size and travel size)
Conditioner (full size and travel size)
Combs
Dental floss
Deodorant (full size and travel size)
Diapers
Dish soap
Floss
Hairbrushes
Laundry soap
Lotion (full size and travel size)
Maxi pads
Pantyliners
Pull-ups
Shampoo (full size and travel size)
