IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0WE ADVOCATE FOR MENSTRUAL EQUITY THE PROVISION OF FREE MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS IN PUBLIC PLACES. WE ALSO WORK TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC AND OUR PUBLIC OFFICIALS ON MENSTRUATION AND RELATED ISSUES. IN 2023, OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR PROVIDED TESTIMONY AND SERVED AS A SUBJECT MATTER EXPERT FOR THE MICHIGAN LEGISLATURE. WE WERE INSTRUMENTAL IN GETTING A LINE ITEM IN THE STATE BUDGET FOR A PILOT PROJECT . ORIGINALLY CALLED THE HELPING WOMEN PERIOD PILOT PROJECT (NOW THE ACCESSIBLE PERIOD PRODUCTS PILOT PROJECT), IT PROVIDES GRANT MONEY FOR 15 SCHOOL DISTRICTS TO DISTRIBUTE MONTHLY PERIOD KITS TO ALL MENSTRUATING 31A (AT RISK) STUDENTS DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR. WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE PILOT PROJECT RENEWED FOR 2024. IN CONJUNCTION WITH SEVERAL OTHER ADVOCACY GROUPS, WE HELD A MICHIGAN PERIOD ACTION DAY EVENT TO EDUCATE AND INFORM ABOUT MENSTRUAL EQUITY. WE WORKED WITH STUDENT GROUPS (BOTH HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE) TO EDUCATE SCHOOLS, COLLEGES/UNIVERSITIES, AND GOVERNMENTAL UNITS ON THE NEED FOR FREE MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS IN PUBLIC SPACES AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO PROVIDE PRODUCTS. WE ALSO WORKED WITH NUMEROUS COALITIONS ON NATIONAL, STATE, AND LOCAL MENSTRUAL EQUITY EDUCATION.

IRS990ScheduleI/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0WE WORK WITH CHARITY PARTNERS WHO ARE ALREADY SERVING A POPULATION. ORGANIZATIONS CONTACT HELPING WOMEN PERIOD, INC. AND REQUEST TO WORK WITH US. ONCE AN ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN ACCEPTED AS A CHARITY PARTNER, THEY CAN ORDER PRODUCT FROM US. WHEN WE RECEIVE AN ORDER, WE VERIFY THAT WE HAVE THE INVENTORY TO FILL IT. WE TRY TO FULFILL ORDERS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND SCHEDULE A PICK UP OR DELIVERY. IF WE DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT PRODUCT ON HAND, ORDERS MAY HAVE TO BE DELAYED OR MADE INTO MORE THAN ONE ORDER. WE ALSO CANNOT FULFILL EXTREMELY SPECIFIC REQUESTS - I.E., KOTEX OVERNIGHT PADS WITH WINGS, AS WE PURCHASE BASIC BULK PRODUCTS. WE MAINTAIN RECORDS OF EXACTLY WHAT IS DISTRIBUTED TO EACH CHARITY PARTNER. ONCE THE SUPPLIES ARE PROVIDED TO THE CHARITY PARTNERS NO MORE MONITORING IS DONE OF OUR PARTNER AGENCIES AND HOW THEY DISTRIBUTE THE PRODUCT WE PROVIDE.
