Portland, OR. PERIOD is a non-profit organization working to celebrate periods and provide products to those in need. On International Women’s Day, PERIOD partnered with We Work, Glad Rags, and Project Object to host its largest packing party yet. In two hours, with over 100+ volunteers from around the Portland Metro Area, workers put together over 2,000 period packs, which will be distributed to menstruators in need over the next month.
Nadya Okamoto and Vincent Forand co-founded PERIOD as high school students in 2014 after realizing that menstrual products are not reliably available to those who need them the most.
