United Way of the River Cities Project Period

Saturday, June 21st from noon - 1pm in Center Court

Project Period. is back!

With 2 in 5 people struggling to afford period products, United Way of the River Cities is tackling this critical need head-on.

During the 2024 Week of Action, we launched Project Period.—an initiative to provide menstrual hygiene supplies to those in need. Thanks to the generosity of our community and incredible volunteers we created 1,168 one-month menstrual hygiene kits, far surpassing our original goal of 800 kits!

Kits were distributed to:

BRANCHES Domestic Violence Shelter

Huntington City Mission

Harvest for the Hungry

Marcum Terrace Family Support Center

Court Street Ministries

Lincoln County Family Resource Network

Wayne County Family Resource Network

Backpack Buddies

Mason County Family Resource Center

St. Peter’s Episcopal Community Outreach

This year’s goal: 2,000 kits — and we need YOUR help!
