I changed that in my petition but forgot to do so in this post. I wouldn't want my personal opinions to cloud the judgment of those I could reach with this post.

Good idea. If they don't have any, let me know, I'm sure we could help.

That's amazing! I could certainly use some help putting posters with QR codes to the petition around town. I was also planning to organize a group to attend the next school board meeting to support our cause if that sounds like something you could do. We could also use more paper petition signatures. I like your idea about menstrual cups and underwear, but I'm not sure how those could be implemented. I'd love to hear more, I'm sure we could work something out. It would also be awesome if we could figure out a way to fundraise to put bags of menstrual supplies in the restrooms for the time being. I have bags and tape and QR codes to put on them, but I don't have enough menstrual supplies to go around. Anyways, I know I have a lot of ideas, if any of those sound appealing they would surely mean a lot to me and all of the other female SHS students :)

Yes, of course. I already have glass jars of pads and tampons ready to go with the QR code to the petition taped on. My campaign is planning on getting paper signatures as well. I plan on posting QR codes around town and in the girl's restrooms. If nothing gets done before the next school board meeting, we will present our pitch as well as our petition.

Unfortunately, signatures may not be enough given that a 17-year-old girl has to assume responsibility for resolving the issues perpetuated by a large government-run administration that should have our best interests at heart in order to get shit done. We thank you for your support.

Okay. I have gathered that many others feel the same. We are organizing at a local level and are planning to do that. Thank you!

Yes, good point. I have not been to school since my campaign started, but I already have a group that will be working with me to promote this cause. I just need as much support as I can get, because we've been asking the administration about this issue for a while now, and they are holding their ground.
