Hi, I’m Rylee.

I’m a University of Arkansas student, ASG Senator, farm kid, and someone who believes deeply that students deserve better.

The Health Essentials Basket Initiative was born out of a simple realization — too many students quietly struggle with access to basic hygiene products. No one talks about it, but it affects confidence, attendance, and overall well-being.

I decided that if I could see the problem, I could help solve it.

What started as one idea has grown into 30 baskets placed across campus buildings, stocked with essentials like deodorant, hand sanitizer, menstrual products, and more — all free and accessible.

This initiative isn’t just about products. It’s about dignity, community, and making sure every Razorback feels supported.

Let’s do better — together.
