Menstrual Hygiene Product Drive

FreetheFlow and SeviCares, two Bay Area organizations working to address Period Poverty, are hosting a Menstrual Hygiene Drive 3/8-3/29.

FreetheFlow and SeviCares, two Bay Area charity organizations working to address Period Poverty, are hosting a Menstrual Hygiene Product Drive from March 8th, 2021 - March 29th, 2021!

Period Poverty is the inability to afford or access menstrual hygiene products and proper washing facilities. 1 in 4 menstruators will suffer from period poverty in their menstruating years, often struggling to work or attend school due to their circumstances.

Our goal for this drive is to help alleviate the effects of period poverty on the many homeless menstruators in the Bay Area. We are fundraising for Project Homeless Connect and Life Moves, and NEED YOUR HELP!

This includes detailed instructions and addresses of the drop-off locations that have been established in every participating major city. This drive will be compliant with all established COVID-19 guidelines. Any support you can provide is greatly appreciated!
