Can you help me finish out the month with a contribution? #leggingspalooza2023 @HamCoLove

These leggings are used to help stock school nurses & school period stations. We know some nurses in the county are purchasing these items with their own money and we want to help.

During the 1st annual Leggingspalooza last April, @HamCoLove collected 80 pairs of leggings. My goal is to raise $150 to be able purchase at least 20 pairs ($7 per pair) to help them surpass this number! Can you help? ⬇️

@HamCoLove #undiestock is currently underway. If you would like to donate packages of underwear, @fishersagent is a drop off location. See 🧵 on ways you can help!

Did you know there is a tampon shortage? Tampons are currently harder to find and more expensive.

It’s a good reminder that sustainable products like cloth pads, menstrual cups, and period underwear help people not have to use as many pads and tampons.

[HamCoLove @HamCoLove]

We’re just under 60,000 products collected since Jan. 2021. (For reference we had 25k in all of 2022). 🎉

If you would like to send us a pack of pads to help us cross this milestone and move toward the next one, our registries are all here: https://t.co/ryTK7gaKEC 💜

We get these questions a lot and want to provide some details/clarification.

Who are you? We are HamCo Love, a nonprofit from Fishers that serves all of Hamilton County since 1/2021.

What do you do? We collect pads, tampons, underwear & more to distribute. (And $ to purchase)

[Lexie Black @LexieBlack08]

Tuesday morning reminder: Clint Wilson State Farm and Thorpe Creek Elementary are generously serving as donation drop off points for #PeriodPovertyAwarenessWeek. Pads, tampons, underwear, and leggings are very much appreciated! 💜

[HamCoLove @HamCoLove]

We are sharing some facts this week for #PeriodPovertyAwarenessWeek, May 23-29.

Did you know that federal (or Indiana state) aid programs like SNAP or WIC can NOT be used to purchase period products? Paying for these items can be a burden for 2 out of every 5 people.

[HamCoLove @HamCoLove]

Thank you to Ireland Dental for being a drop off spot for period products for #PeriodPovertyAwarenessWeek!

They are located at 10995 Allisonville Road, #110, Fishers.

Donations of pads, tampons, and underwear will be extremely helpful. Thank you! 💜

[Lexie Black @LexieBlack08]

There is a great need for period products here in Ham Co. Let's work 2gether 2 alleviate this issue. We are so grateful to the crew at @clintismyagent 4 hosting a donation supply drive 4 us this week. There will be a box in the office for donations of period products.

[HamCoLove @HamCoLove]

My math *was* off - I wasn’t including a column of products we had purchased with monetary donations…. That puts us at 41,490. We CROSSED 40k today thanks to the help from the HSE clubs in our earlier tweet. 41,490!!!!!

According to a U by Kotex survey, only 4% were aware of a local resource where free or low cost period supplies are available. Menstrual products are not covered by public health/nutritional benefits programs, nor made uniformly available in schools/workplaces. #endperiodpoverty
