Thank you @ElectedWomen, @KCCorp & @ubykotex for the donation of 330 boxes of pads to @BRAWSorg, the Vienna, VA based nonprofit organization I founded 8 years ago, to address #PeriodPoverty in our local community. This will make an enormous impact in the lives of those it serves! – at Vienna, VA
I am proud to have been recognized by @ElectedWomen as one of the winners of the “Ending Period Poverty” contest, which aimed to raise awareness about period poverty and to support innovative solutions to address this issue.

Due to the rising cost of period products, the French government announced reusable sanitary products would be free for people under 25. #freeperiodproducts #freethetampon #endperiodpoverty #periodpartner ow.ly/atsP50Nh5QF

Thank you to the @YMSL of Hunter Mill for inviting me to discuss women in leadership and how we can encourage our children to support the causes they believe in and their community. Loved the menstrual supplies to donate to @BRAWSorg.
