Help End Period Poverty. Donate to Our Menstrual Product Drive.
Access to menstrual products is a basic necessity, yet many individuals in our community struggle to afford them. Period poverty causes unnecessary disruptions in daily life, school, and work. Through our Menstrual Product Drive, we aim to bridge this gap by collecting and distributing menstrual hygiene products to local organizations.
Please join us in supporting our local shelters and nonprofits by donating new and sealed packages of tampons, pads, liners, and menstrual cups. Help us make a difference today!

Did you know that food donations are at their lowest during the summer months? We need your help fighting hunger during the toughest months!
Unlike the winter holiday season, when giving is at its peak, summer often brings a significant drop in donations to food banks and pantries. Help us bridge this gap and ensure that our students do not struggle with hunger while on summer break.
In addition to non-perishable food items, we are also collecting dental supplies to ensure children have access to essential tools for dental hygiene. Your contribution can make a huge difference in promoting healthy habits early on. The last day to drop off your donations is Saturday, August 31.
Collection Sites:
Jim Scott Community Center, Monday - Saturday, 9AM - 1-PM
Mosaic Live, Saturdays, 5 - 7PM
Nottoway Nights, Thursdays, 7 - 8PM
Recipients:
FCPS Pantries
Falls Church High School
Woodson High School
GMU's Mason and Partners Clinic
Items Being Collected:
Soft toothbrushes for kids
Fluoride toothpaste for kids
Floss picks for kids
Non-perishable food items
