About Menses In Need: A fight against period poverty

Menses in Need is a nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting period poverty and promoting menstrual equity in our community. We provide free access to essential menstrual products for individuals who may be struggling to afford them. Our mission is to break the stigma around menstruation and ensure that no one has to choose between basic needs and menstrual care. Through community partnerships, education, and donations, we work to create lasting change and dignity for all who menstruate. Every contribution and act of support helps us move one step closer to a world where menstrual products are a right, not a privilege.
