Summer doesn’t always mean fun in the sun . It means school is out, and students have less access to menstruation products, making summertime activities stressful without the proper supplies.
As you know, we provide sustainable, washable, and reusable pad kits to those in need, making the summer months a bit less stressful for those who menstruate.
That is why it is so important to continue the outreach and funding we do year round.
Right now, your support can help in a number of ways. A gift of $12.50 provides a Dignity Kit for a student struggling to meet her needs while school is out.
.
A gift of just $25 can provide 25 bars of soap to support our students in Ethiopia to ensure their pads stay clean and ready month after month.
