Women's Supply Drive 2022

In honor of International Women's Day on March 8th, AEOA is hosting a period supply drive to help women in need.

• 1 in 4 women struggled to purchase period products within the past year due to lack of income.
• 1 in 8 Minnesota women and girls between the ages of 12 and 44 lives below the Federal Poverty Line.
• 275,600 women between the ages of 19 and 64 are covered by Medicaid. While Medicaid provides protection for healthcare needs, individuals still struggle to access the material basic necessities they require to thrive.
• Menstruation requires an average of 6 period products per day, with an average woman spending $6,360 in her lifetime on supplies.

All dollars will be distributed to the seven food shelves fiscally sponsored by AEOA and local organizations within the county collected.
