Youth advocates were a driving force behind our decision to provide free menstrual products to students in grades six through 12 starting next school year.
Supporting adolescents with their most basic bodily needs will help them succeed both in and out of the classroom.
You bet she is! Our co-founder gets a front row seat to see NJ Gov. @PhilMurphy sign a law we helped get passed, mandating free period products in school bathrooms. TY to all the advocates and lawmakers who were amazing partners! #endperiodstigma#educationforall
@SocialBeeHQ Thank you so much for a great platform and really terrific response from your team on questions here and email!! Much appreciated. One suggestion: a space for notes on each post that would not get published by can help manage thoughts for planning purposes. TY!!!
Been busy working our asses off to help people who deal w/ #periodpoverty, an absurd thing to exist in our modern world.
Grateful for @DaveSFoley for holding down the fort. Millions of Americans can't get to school/work bc they can't afford pads. https://t.co/q2vvdGcDEw
Period Poverty
As the man who wrote this monologue, I think it’s appropriate that I bring your attention to this issue and an organization that is trying to help.

@LongtinColleen@DaveSFoley@MarkHamill@YouTube We are sooo late to this thread but nonetheless... you "never thought about it." Neither had we, until we learned about students missing whole days of school in our town. But once you know, you know. And now we are working our butts off to spread the word. Thanks for helping!
@DaveSFoley No idea how we missed this note... Thank You!! Just had a lovely chat with a fan of yours who, when asked why she donated said "Dave told me to." You surely helped our campaign. Always appreciate support in our work... give us a shout if you want to work together. Many thanks!
@SocialBeeHQ Is there a way to "choose" reminders when setting up your feed for Insta? How do you create a reel, but get a reminder so you can add bells and whistles before it posts? (I dont see the option.) TY!!!#Question
“It’s incalculable the lost education, the lost productivity, because of this very very simple thing.” @GHGPeriod Founder Elise Joy shares her mission to systemically end period poverty this Giving Tuesday.
#periodpoverty Now you know what it is. What are you going to do about it?
→Donate products to food pantries
→Demand pads/tampons be available for free in your (kids') school bathrooms, just like toilet paper is
We can #endperiodpoverty
Fun visit with @SSpeight4NJ in advance of her Women's Menstrual Health Equity Summit in NJ... all in the name of calling attention to #periodpoverty. Thanks to @thehoneypotcomp for 50K products for the event!
The Oregon State Board of Education on Monday rejected a petition from a Southern Oregon mom who sought to change the implementation of a 2021 law that mandates period products in all K-12 bathrooms, including bathrooms for boys as young as 5. https://t.co/miB1KUBBJj
