Menstrual Health Drive

For the past two years, our dedicated Fellows have organized a Menstrual Health Drive held annually in March. During this time, we rally the campus community together to collect menstrual health products, such as pads, tampons, and menstrual cups, across various locations on campus.

The goal of our Menstrual Health Drive is simple yet powerful: to combat period poverty and ensure that individuals in need have access to essential menstrual hygiene products. By partnering with the Field & Fork Pantry, a campus resource dedicated to addressing food insecurity, we help expand their offerings to include menstrual health products, thus providing comprehensive support to those facing economic challenges.

Through the collective efforts of our Fellows and the generosity of our campus community, we’ve been able to make a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals experiencing period poverty. By raising awareness and fostering a culture of compassion and inclusivity, we strive to break down barriers and create a more equitable and supportive environment for all.

As we continue our Menstrual Health Drive each year, we remain committed to advocating for menstrual health equity and ensuring that no one has to face the challenges of period poverty alone. Join us in our mission to make menstrual health products accessible to all and empower individuals to live their lives with dignity and confidence.
