Period Equity Drives and Packing Parties
Collect. Arrange. Distribute.
Having limited access to sanitary products and clean water for washing can make something as normal as having a period, a very difficult challenge.
​
Period Equity Drives are toiletry drive events aimed at collecting menstruation essentials to provide directly to women and girls in need. Free Flow can assist you and/or your organization in hosting a drive as well as partnering with local organizations to receive products.
​​
Period Packing Parties are great for groups large and small. Free Flow can help your group host a Period Packing Party, where volunteers come out and help go through these products and arrange them into bags to distribute to those in need.
#PERIODTALK
Lets Talk About Periods
Periods can be uncomfortable to talk about, even with your partner, your family, or a doctor. This is why we are excited to share #PeriodTalk .
#PeriodTalk is a safe space to freely and openly talk about, you guessed it... PERIODS! Part of the stigma in society lies in the fact that periods and menstruation aren't often discussed. We want to change that. To normalize the rhetoric revolving around periods, we wanted to create a community where we (and you) can share stories, experiences ( especially those embarrassing ones...), tips, and empower women and girls to embrace their periods!

DISASTER RELIEF PERIOD BANK
Because Periods Don't Stop During Natural Disasters
During natural disasters, many people provide food, water, clothing and sometimes medicine, but one thing is often overlooked; the pressing need of securing menstrual hygiene for women and girls. The Disaster Relief Period Bank allows Free Flow to build a "bank" full of sanitary products so when disaster strikes, we are ready to provide women and girls their essential items
Period Supplies Are School Supplies
Investing in Women and Girls
1 in 5 girls in the US miss school because of the lack of access to sanitary products and proper hygiene and due to the lack of visibility and support regarding menstrual hygiene management, it is often left up to local organizations and the community to prioritize the need of sanitary products to those impacted most.
​
Period Supplies Are School Supplies is our annual campaign to ensure that school aged girls all over the United States have their basic hygienic needs met, so that they are able to show up fully in all spaces, especially education.
