Dignity Period

Who We Are:
Dignity Period is a not-for-profit organization based in St. Louis, MO, whose mission is to keep girls in school by ensuring that they have access to quality menstrual hygiene products and education.
How Our Program Works:
Dignity Period believes that change can happen through a comprehensive solution to the challenges facing girls and women. We focus on three key areas of work:
Research, Pads & Education: Dignity Period conducts research through collaborative partnerships that measure the impact of readily accessible menstrual hygiene supplies for girls and women. We set out to impact the attitudes and culture surrounding menstruation and washable / reusable products. We provide education to close the knowledge gap of what happens, why it happens and how to manage it. Then, we supply girls and women with pad kits that include 4 reusable pads.
Our Results:
In 2023, 10,000 washable / reusable Dignity Period Kits were delivered to the greater St. Louis community, equaling 2.4 million disposable products.
