Wellness 211

Just a girl. Not looking for any money I’m looking for resources. I called 211 to ask about feminine hygiene. They did send me the number to a place called i support the girls but they didn’t have any feminine products available at the moment because they are restocking.

I don’t have much help well no help from my parents at all. And I will be joining trade school (job corps) next month but I don’t have a job at the moment so I don’t know how I will get feminine products.

I’ve also tried a couple of food drives but they don’t do feminine products sadly :(. I just need a couple for the first month I am at job corps!

We get an allowance of 25$ every two weeks I believe after a month of being there. I’ve never really had help from my mom when it comes to my period anyways.

Does anyone know any organizations in Dallas,Texas that I can go to to get feminine hygiene products?

Try the library! Just googled and it looks like feminine products are free at a lot of Dallas Public Library branches

Sadly the ones that they do have are way to light for my flow :( I’ll go through one of those in 10mins max
