Please join Sukkat Shalom as we partner with Ayuda in gathering menstrual pads for low-income refugees in our area.
Periods are a basic fact of human existence. Hygiene products are a necessity, not a luxury. Unfortunately, SNAP benefits (food stamps) and subsidies under the WIC (women, infants, and children) program help with groceries but do not cover menstrual products.
Neighborhood Drop-Off Locations Available June 7 and 8 ONLY
Please help bring dignity to Ayuda’s clients by dropping off your donation of menstrual pads (no tampons, please) at four convenient neighborhood locations (including Northwest D.C., Chevy Chase/Bethesda, Takoma Park, and Arlington) June 7-8, any time between the hours of 8 a.m. – 6 p.m.
Additionally, Micah members may drop off their donation(s) at Temple Micah on: Friday, June 7 between 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. or immediately before our Welcoming Shabbat service; Saturday, June 8 between 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.; or Sunday, June 9 between 9 a.m. – 12 noon.
Please complete this form to receive access to each drop-off location address.
