Goal of the Project
Did you meet your program goals for the grant period?
If yes, how do you know? Please describe any program evaluation you use:
If no, please describe current barriers and how you are working to overcome them:
We are spending $200.00 per month on a variety feminine hygiene products that are available to choose from. These items serve the needs of our clients who vary in age from teen to senior citizens. We have tampons, pantyliners, menstrual pads, bladder control pads and depends undergarments.
Do you have a story of how your program positively changed participant's situation, behavior, or knowledge?
If so, please share it:
Our female clients are so grateful to have these items available. We will be returning to in person shopping June 8th for the first time since March of 2020. Although our "drive-up service" has worked smoothly, we are very excited to be able to spend more time visiting with our clients in person and addressing ongoing needs.

Summary Comments
The issue of Period Poverty is very real. Women and girls facing food insecurity often do not have extra money available to them in order to purchase needed personal care items. This grant provides our clients with these items and most importantly helps maintain their dignity.
Thank you to Hestia Women's Giving Circle.
I have emailed a copy of our Excel spreadsheet to Jean Van Damn that shows our monthly expenditures through March 2023.
