Did you know?

Research from U by Kotex® finds that two in five women struggled to purchase period products due to lack of income.
Over one-third 38% of low-income women report missing work, school or similar events due to lack of access to period supplies.
Lack of access to period supplies is linked to using substitute products, stretching product usage and even missing work, school or other important events.

Addressing the need for period products, often referred to as “period poverty,” is something that the nonprofit Alliance for Period Supplies and its founding sponsor U by Kotex® are committed to. The With U She Can program is raising awareness of the consequences that a lack of access to period products can have on the lives of individuals living in poverty, and inspiring individuals and communities to take action.

How You Can Take Action

Taking action is as simple as purchasing your U by Kotex® products at Walmart from now until 9/28. Your purchase of any U by Kotex® product will spark a donation to support even more individuals in need of help. Purchasing the product is easy, at every Walmart store - in-store and online. You can purchase the products here!

SheSpeaks influencers are helping to raise awareness of this issue and the With U She Can program & events at Walmart stores - see their content below!

Hygiene products especially for that time of the month should be free.

Awareness is one of the best first steps to tackle this issue. Important topic to share with others.

I think this is important so that girls can still have a life and go to school the week they are on their cycle. if we can make it just a bit better for them it's worth it.

It's so sad that two in five women can't afford basic supplies for their monthly period (and don't get me started on the "pink tax" for women's personal care and grooming items, that isn't applied to similar items for men). Kudos to U by Kotex for this program to help!
