July 2016 Accolades

Holly Sanchez Perry (2009) joined with U by Kotex and DoSomething.org to start “The Power of the Period” project. It’s the first-ever, national period products drive and second installment of the Period Projects – a series of projects, each inspired and led by a woman who has passion for creating change.

The project is from July 14 – September 30, 2016, and will bring awareness to the issues of homelessness and menstrual health. People can sign up to participate in the project on their local level by visiting https://www.dosomething.org/us/campaigns/power-period and even have the opportunity to win a $5,000 scholarship!

“I did a small-scale Chicago-based drive in March of this year and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to help take this nationally,” said Holly.
