In honor of Giving Tuesday, Windward’s Pad Project club held a Service Learning event from December 2-6, collecting pads and tampons. By the end of the week, the Windward community donated several hundred boxes of products and bags to make daily and weekly supply kits, which club members assembled during community time as a group. All items were then sent to the club’s community partner, the Grace and Wisdom Institute. The products will soon be distributed throughout the city to make a greater impact across Los Angeles County.
Club leaders Dori Farkas ’25 and Riley Taylor ’25 shared, "We are so appreciative to everyone in the Windward community who donated. This truly exceeded our expectations, and we are beyond grateful to everyone who donated and helped with the packaging."
