Event description: 

Period Drive: Donate feminine hygiene products for New Reach Inc., the largest provider of family shelter and family supportive housing in Connecticut.

1 in 4 women have struggled to purchase period products within the past year due to lack of income.*
1 in 5 low-income women report missing work, school, or similar events due to lack of access to period supplies.*
Lack of period products is a hidden consequence of poverty. Help ANY sponsor a drive for donations of feminine hygiene products such as pads, tampons, liners, menstrual cups and discs.
