Looky looky what we got in the mail!!! Thank you @dotcup I’m finally ready to make the switch! Who has a menstrual cup and loves it? If you’re thinking of making the switch, @dotcup is a good one. For every Dot cup purchased, they donate one to a girl in need.
Great meeting at the @ui_health_pilsen_food_pantry this morning. Stay tuned for all the great partnership projects we are working on together. Of course we brought some menstrual goodies with us. They packed 60 pads and tampon bags with the 1200 supplies we brought.
Rain set us back a bit but you can still catch us at the @do312 Rock n’ Roll Market🤘🏽 see y’all at 1! Don’t forget to stop by our table and say heyyy! Also if you got any pads/tampons lying around we will take those off your hands!
Today we happily took 50 Period kits to Chicago Women’s AIDS Project, an organization in South Shore that provides prevention, treatment, education, advocacy and therapy for women at risk or living with HIV in Chicago. Their mission is to empower cisgender and transgender women to take control of their own health and live as fully as possible. At CWAP we were fortunate enough to meet one of the most special women, Velvian! Velvian works with Chicago Women’s AIDS Project/Returning sister and advocates for women returning from prison or treatment. A huge joy in what we do is meeting other people doing good for our community. Thank you Velvian!
You are not alone. There is help and hope out there. Life is painful and hard as fuck sometimes and it’s ok to not be ok but you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s all be kinder. Be more loving. Be more open. Sending light and love to everyone out there today.
