## Resource

Matilda Woodsin, a grade ten student at William Aberhart High School, is advocating for period product dispensers in school bathrooms. She previously addressed this issue at Senator Patrick Burns, and now, with her group AbeFlowsFree, shes fundraising for the cause. Despite half the students needing these products, bathroom dispensers are empty, and school staff hasnt provided clear reasons. Matildas efforts, including a bake sale and petition, aim to change this, demonstrating the power of young voices in addressing everyday student struggles.
