Health Connection Thanks Donors for Supporting Pad and Tampon Drive

Health Connection of Pace Community Action Agency, Inc. extends its heartfelt gratitude to the generous donors who contributed to our recent pad and tampon drive. Thanks to your support, we were able to collect and distribute 25,692 pads and tampons to individuals in need, promoting health, dignity, and well-being in our community.

The overwhelming response to this drive highlights the strength of our shared commitment to health equity and advocacy for those in need. Access to hygiene products is critical for individuals to feel confident and participate fully in daily activities, yet it remains a challenge for many in our community.

We would like to extend a special thank you to the incredible individuals and organizations who made this drive a success. Your contributions have made a tangible impact on the lives of those we serve. Your kindness and commitment to supporting health and dignity in our community inspire us every day. Together, we are making a difference! We are grateful to:
