Today feels like a BIG day for Be Her Hero.
The state appropriation officially arrived in the mail, and I have finished the process of setting up the Be Her Hero bank account. After months of paperwork, meetings, planning and hard work, I am so grateful for the opportunity to use this funding to help provide feminine hygiene products to students and communities across Tennessee.
I could not have gotten to this point without so many people who believed in me and in Be Her Hero. A very special thank you to Pryor Law Firm, Heritage Bank, Jennifer Gass, Representatives Elaine Davis and David Hawk, Harvard University’s SPARK program, and my Mom and Dad for supporting me every step of the way.
And thank you to everyone who has donated, volunteered, shared my mission, made an introduction, encouraged me or simply believed in what I am doing.
The funding has arrived, the bank account is ready, and now it is time to get to work!
I am so excited to see what we can accomplish together during the 2026–2027 budget year. This is just the beginning!
