Milton High School’s chapter of the National Honor Society is running a hygiene product drive in conjunction with Hope & Comfort, an organization dedicated to ending hygiene insecurity in Massachusetts.
Hygiene products are not covered by SNAP or WIC, and with their high costs, they are often sacrificed in place of other necessities. Instead of having to choose between rent and food and hygiene, our drive aims to help relieve the pressure of paying for hygiene products.
We are collecting items such as body wash, deodorant, shampoo, and toothpaste. Please make sure all donations are new and sealed. Please drop donations off at Tucker from Monday, Oct. 21 to Friday, Nov. 1. Our mission is to help families facing hygiene insecurity in the metro Boston area gain access to basic hygiene products. Let’s fight hygiene insecurity together!!

Get ready for the UNITY project's official launch at Tucker this November! Watch for details in the coming weeks from your class room parent regarding dates.
The UNITY Project is a 2024 parent collaboration across Milton's PTOs to revitalize and streamline the previous Reading About Diversity/RAD (2010) and Meet the Artist/MTA (2015) programs. It combines both curricula and expands the program to Pre-K through 5th grades with additional books and artists. The Program invites parents and guardians into the classroom to teach a quick lesson (approximately 45 minutes) with just a little bit of prep work.
We will be holding info sessions regarding the UNITY project on the first Monday of each month at 8PM. Please join us to ask questions and share ideas. Our next meeting will be November 4th at 8pm!
