Other Ways To Support Us
Aside from donating money or period products, you support us in several ways:
Follow us or post about us on social media
Something as simple as a facebook post or mentioning us on your snapchat story can have a tremendous effect on getting the word out there! The more people know about The Pad Program, the more we can help.
Tell family members and friends about us
Friends, parents, grandparents, siblings... anyone can donate! Telling friends and family about our program can help inform others about the importance of having free period products in school.
Encourage Iowa schools and politicians to prioritize making period products free
This may be by sending an email, a letter, or making a phone call. There are several states that require schools to supply free period products in female and gender neutral bathrooms- you can support us by showing your support for Iowa passing a similar law.
