Updated wishlist for products. All packs will be made from products donated or bought with donated money. 100% of the packs will go to local shelters/individuals in need/food pantries. Please consider donating and helping decrease the period poverty rates.

It's time I get back to another period product drive! This time I'm going to switch it up adding hygiene products (male and female). The general products will be packed together and the period packs will be made as I usually do them. Thank you for your continual support and donations! I will be posting an updated wishlist. Stay tuned!

It is time that I end this period product drive. Thank you all for the support and time. This past year I had the privlege of educating tons of people and getting involvement from the community to support women. As a new nurse I had maintained my goal and supported the community in the best I could. I was able to supply over 100s of period packs to the local food pantry! In the near future I may continue this project or start up a different project for a different community need. Please stay tuned.

Pretty soon I will start making postpartum packs for those who have just had babies. For these packs we will need more diapers donations, extra long pad donations, sample baby products, etc.. I will add some products to the Amazon wishlist if you want to check it out! Please stay tuned!

Thank you all for the donations! The love of the locals event was a great way to educate people about period poverty and the purpose of the Period project! We raised $100 in donations that went straight to products. Stay on the look out for period pack videos. The remaining of the packs that didn't get picked up at the event will be included in the donation to a joliet women's shelter. Thank you all for the support!
