Valentine's Period Product Drive

Join us this Valentine’s Day for a special Friday Maker Night!

We are asking guests to please bring period products to donate in support of the Period Collective!

The Period Collective is an all-volunteer non-profit organization based in Chicago that is dedicated to promoting menstrual equity by ensuring that all individuals have access to menstrual products. They believe that menstrual equity is a basic human right, and are committed to doing everything in their power to make it a reality.

Since their inception, they have distributed over two million menstrual products to social service organizations such as schools, food banks, and shelters. These organizations then distribute the menstrual products to people in need, providing them with the dignity and respect they deserve. Their mission is to create a world where everyone has access to menstrual products, regardless of their income or living situation.

Supplies needed include:
Pads (all sizes)
Tampons (all sizes)
Liners
Wipes
Menstrual cups

For a full list of supply needs and to learn more about the Period Collective, you can check their website.

For the entire month of November, we are hosting a supply drive for local non-profit Cradles to Crayons. Cradles to Crayons provides children from birth through age 12, living in homeless or low-income situations, with the essential items they need to thrive – at home, at school and at play. They supply these items free of charge by engaging and connecting communities.

You can help by donating a wide range of new and gently-used goods that are appropriate for use by children ages newborn to 12. Click the event page for more information, including all acceptable items to donate!
