Last August we learned that many women lack access to female care goods, as local shelters and women’s organizations are in constant need when it comes to these items. The average woman will utilize over 250 tampons and/or pads each year, and most organizations do not receive enough donations to provide basic female care items to their clients. Within hours of sharing these daunting facts in the DSM Girl Gang community Facebook group, the idea of organizing a donation drive was formed.
