Period Palooza: Make Kits. Build Community. Craft Change

​In the spirit of Mother’s Day and celebrating the superpowers women possess, we invite you to join us for a hands-on community gathering where we come together to assemble period kits for women and girls in need across the U.S. and globally.

​I’m co-hosting with Boston Amigas, with support from other local organizations and friends, as a simple way to turn awareness into action. All are welcome.

​How it works

• ​Contribute toward the kits at https://givebutter.com/Qe3FGH/mayas-bees

• ​Materials will be provided, and we will assemble/craft the kits together

• ​$11 = 55 products for girls in need

• ​Please submit your contribution prior to the event

​Why it matters
Period poverty is more present than most of us realize. Nearly 1 in 4 students in the U.S. have struggled to afford period products, and globally over 500 million women and girls lack consistent access. This affects health, confidence, school attendance, and everyday participation.

​What to expect

• ​A welcoming space to connect, craft, and contribute

• ​Light structure, easy conversation, shared purpose

• ​The chance to make a tangible impact in just a couple of hours
