WHY SUPPORT US

WE ARE ADDRESSING THE ROOT CAUSES OF MENSTRUAL INJUSTICE

It's not enough to provide menstrual products to those in need. We need to address the root causes of why people don't have those products in the first place -- systems of oppression like racism, misogyny, transphobia, houselessness, incarceration, and ableism.
