Change The Cycle

Change the Cycle’s mission promotes period equity and combats discrimination by providing feminine products to organizations that empower and improve the lives of menstruating people including youth, those experiencing homelessness, and drug addicted people. Our mission is two fold: we want to provide both the education and resources to combat period poverty. Sadly, menstruation is a taboo in many homes and cultures and is rarely discussed in schools. Menstruating people are often forced to rely on their own knowledge to learn how to manage periods. This results in many people damaging their bodies, clothes, and self- esteem. To combat this we use the hold true the Latin phrase"scientia potentia est" or knowledge is power. We offer menstrual health education for the community at large and believe by educating both menstruating people and non menstruating people we will help combat the stigma surrounding period poverty and menstruation.
