Period Poverty is real, Democrats can help. [1]

['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

While TGF (That Felon Guy) is busy harming the Country, one way small groups of Democrats can help is increasing the supply of Period Products on the personal care shelves at your local food bank.

I brought in 1 box of Tampons a few months ago and the volunteers were ecstatic, “we rarely get these!” Since then I try to bring in a box a week, the volunteers say they don’t last a day. My local Dem Central Committee filled 2 boxes with supplies just before the Holidays. I am working on ways to get others to donate on a regular basis. Dems need to be the party that helps women more than ever, and we need to get credit for it. While working on ways to increase the food bank’s supply, I have found several groups involved in this issue. We don’t have a chapter in my state for the Alliance for Period Supplies, but I am trying to change that. allianceforperiodsupplies.org/...
