Menstrual product drives

Idea Submission for The People's Money:
Our city should hold menstrual product drives for those facing period poverty in NYC and for students in DOE schools who need an upgrade from the products provided to them.
What is the problem your idea aims to address?
Health and wellbeing doesn't receive as much funding as parks and recreation does even though based on the survey in my classroom, it received more votes. There are many people in our city who need to afford medical expenses and need to know more about medical resources which our city provides.
Which groups does your idea focus on? Select all that apply
Youth (under 24)
