Through the month of February, Equality Starts Now (ESN), a student-run social justice club at the East Brunswick Public Library, will be hosting a Sanitary Supply Drive. They will be collecting donations for Support the Girls, a non-profit organization that provides homeless women in Central/North New Jersey with necessities, including bras and feminine hygiene products. Support the Girls has helped 180,000 girls and women worldwide retain their dignity.
ESN is accepting any kind or size of bra (new or used, in good condition), as well as any brand or size of sanitary napkin and tampon. The product with the most impact is overnight maxi pads with wings. The donation bin will be located by the library's front doors, near the book return slots.
