Women in Science and Engineering Residence Program - WISE RP

Yesterday we shared the purpose behind our new Service Learning initiative. Today we’re celebrating the scholars who helped make it happen.

WISE RP squads (Peer Mentors & First-Year Students) came together to design, decorate, and assemble period packs for youth in the foster care system supported by Our House Michigan, in partnership with the University of Michigan’s Period Organization.

Together, our community gathered:

• 1,181 super pads
• 676 regular pads
• 589 tampons
• 483 panty liners

A special shoutout to our winning squad, the “Invention” squad, who procured the most supplies, and to every squad that helped design and assemble these packs with care and intention.
