Join Us in ending period poverty through community, education, and giving-back.

Education
Knowledge sharing between organizations, within communities, should include menstruators in the conversation and provide education without shame or stigma.
-
Community
We want to partner with you! Menstruators need the backing of their local governments to provide passable infrastructure as well as access to affordable menstrual products.
-
Giving Back
We are dedicated to educating menstruators, and providing necessary products, and support to people and their communities.

Let's Work Together
What contributes to period poverty? Period poverty mostly occurs because of having a low income. If you're only earning enough money to choose between food and heating, then period products quickly slip down the list of priorities.
