The Flow

The Flow is making significant strides in eradicating period poverty through menstrual cups, thanks in part to a Visionary Women grant. Since launching their school-based programs in September 2024, they have distributed 460 cups to students, expanded outreach through Wellbeing Centers, and introduced culturally specific education to increase awareness and adoption of menstrual cups. Early results show a remarkable shift—before workshops, 97% of participants had never tried a cup, but afterward, 87% said they would consider using one, and 97% took a cup home.

With this momentum, The Flow has secured an additional $55K in grant funding and increased private donations by 30%. They have also expanded programming to new communities, including partnerships with the LA Regional Food Bank and the Century Regional Detention Facility. As they continue data collection and advocacy, The Flow remains dedicated to breaking barriers and providing sustainable solutions for menstrual health.
