St. Francis-Emory Healthcare was honored to collaborate with Girls Inc. of Columbus for its End Period Poverty, Period project. Did you know that many girls in the greater Columbus area will miss almost a third of the school year, simply because they do not have the means to purchase feminine hygiene items?
Our incredible team donated 167 packages or 8,356 individual hygiene items to be distributed for young women in need at Girls Inc., also raising $1,120 to assist with this most worthy cause.
