The Menstural Mission started with a bored high school senior and a pop-up video on Facebook about how difficult it can be for homeless humans to cope with their period. Three days later she was armed with a newfound desire to create change and ensure everyone has access to sanitary menstrual products . She put collection boxes up in her high school hallways and local grocery store, and asked everyone she knew to donate just one tampon. Two weeks later, the boxes were filled with over 2,600 pads, tampons and panty liners. Social media promotions, generous neighbors, passionate friends and word of mouth allowed her to create 191 'Period Supply Kits'. These were all donated to her a local soup kitchen in Trenton, New Jersey before she left for college. Three years later, that high school senior is a college Junior and has collected around 16,000 period products and created over 1,000 'Period Kits'. Today The Menstrual Mission is an informal organization run by a full time college student, based in Washington DC. It is in the process of becoming a 501(c)(3) non profit.
