Period Action Day - October 12, 2024
Period Action Day is an annual event dedicated to combating period poverty and stigma, and we believe that your support could make a significant difference in this critical initiative.
Period poverty is a pressing issue that affects millions globally, with one in five girls in the United States missing school due to a lack of access to necessary period products. Our mission drives us to address this issue head-on by raising awareness, distributing products, and advocating for change.
