Dear Friends and Family, My name is Kritika Vedula. I am currently a sophomore attending Homestead High School located in Cupertino, California. The Pad Project is an organization focused on spreading awareness about the taboo surrounding menstruation and raising money to fund this cause. Their organization is dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." Many girls around the world cannot afford sanitary products, so they rely on unhealthy alternatives, such as old clothing or dirty rags, which increases the risk of infection and the likelihood of girls dropping out of school early. But now, there is a new invention which helps to solve this problem. The machine does more than just supply girls with pads: it supplies a stable income to the women who work to make the pads, empowering them to become independent and also rise above the stigma around periods and pads. The Pad Project’s goal is to raise enough money for one machine, a years' worth of supplies, and a team of local women who can educate other women on how to use the machine and raise awareness about the normality of periods and the importance of using pads. At the 2013 “Commission on the Status of Women” at the United Nations, a group of high school students and their teacher, Melissa Berton, learned that girls all over the world are forced to miss or drop out of school entirely at the onset of their periods, due to lack of access to hygienic and affordable menstrual supplies. Melissa and her students committed to creating a documentary that would raise awareness about the issue and form a club called The Pad Project. Six years later, in 2019, that film, PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE. won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, and that club became the 501(c)3 nonprofit that I write to you about today. Thanks to the support of caring people like you, The Pad Project has had the pleasure of hearing from 42 states, 94 countries, and has sparked a global conversation about menstruation. Still, while The Pad Project is humbled by all of the help they have received, the fight for menstrual equality has only just begun! I hope that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation and donating to their organization. Each one of you can make a difference just by donating one dollar. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you. Every penny counts.

Dear Friends and Family, It's all about perspective... Can you imagine not having access to affordable supplies for your period? Forcing you to stay home from school and feeling shamed and dirty? That today, in 2020 even talking about menstruation in some countries is still considered taboo? With monies raised these women can get their own machine to make pads!. They create jobs, allow them to stay in school and feel empowered, contributing to their families financially. Check out the short film "Period. End of Sentence" to see how it works.

Dear Friends and Family, At the 2013 “Commission on the Status of Women” at the United Nations, a group of high school students and their teacher, Melissa Berton, learned that girls all over the world are forced to miss or drop out of school entirely at the onset of their periods, due to lack of access to hygienic and affordable menstrual supplies.

END OF SENTENCE., won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, and that club became the 501(c)3 nonprofit that I write to you about today. After watching the documentary, I was reminded of all the resources we take for granted, which allow us to go on with our daily lives- school, work, exercise throughout our menstrual cycles. For me, the documentary went beyond menstrual hygiene. The fact of being a woman was no longer a strength and proof of what our bodies are capable of, but instead something which was embarrassing, and which prevented these young girls from going on with their day to day. Every young girl in that documentary was full of ambition and through this project, many have been employed to manufacture and sell their product. This allows them to gain some independence, to make necessary money which helps them support their families and move beyond the stigma they encounter within their communities. These women face many hurdles and challenges. Their periods should not be one of them. Thanks to the support of caring people like you, The Pad Project has had the pleasure of hearing from 42 states, 94 countries, and has sparked a global conversation about menstruation. Still, while The Pad Project is humbled by all of the help they have received, the fight for menstrual equality has only just begun! My hope is that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation, and ensuring that every girl feels safe and strong in her own body. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you. Eleanor

Dear Friends and Family,Please join me and The Pad Project in the global fight for menstrual equality! The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." Did you know that 500 million women and girls globally lack access to adequate facilities for menstrual hygiene management? In the U.S. alone, 1 in 5 American girls have either left school early or missed it entirely because they didn’t have access to sanitary products.The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization founded by a group of high school students and their teacher, Melissa Berton, to fight for menstrual equity. Their programs here in the U.S. help women with supplies and education regarding their menstrual health. Overseas they fund pad machine programs in Afghanistan, India, Kenya, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. The pad machine programs employ 6 or more local women, who produce and distribute low-cost quality pads to their community. Period. End of Sentence, the 2019 Oscar winner for Best Documentary Short Subject, provides a good overview of their overseas efforts.The fight for equity in the board room and in the Oval Office begins by achieving equality in the classroom. Please support this organization in their work to dismantle taboos around menstruation and help empower more girls and women!You can also amplify our efforts by setting up your own donation page as part of our fundraising teamKaren

Dear Friends and Family, My granddaughter Claire co-founded The Pad Project almost 8 years ago when she was 13 years old. The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." For my 80th birthday it would be my fondest wish to help her organization continue the wonderful work that they do both here in the United States and around the world. At the 2013 “Commission on the Status of Women” at the United Nations, Claire learned that girls all over the world are forced to miss or drop out of school entirely at the onset of their periods, due to lack of access to hygienic and affordable menstrual supplies. She and her peers committed to create a documentary that would raise awareness about the issue and to form a club called The Pad Project. Six years later, in 2019, that film, PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE., won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, and that club became the 501(c)3 nonprofit that I write to you about today. My hope is that you will support Claire’s efforts and continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation and donating to their organization. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you! All my love, Judy

My hope is that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation, creating your own Pad Project chapter, and donating to their organization. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you. Thank you ❤️ Starr Napolitano[Name]

Dear Friends and Family,Please join me and The Pad Project in the global fight for menstrual equality! The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." At the 2013 “Commission on the Status of Women” at the United Nations, a group of high school students and their teacher, Melissa Berton, learned that girls all over the world are forced to miss or drop out of school entirely at the onset of their periods, due to lack of access to hygienic and affordable menstrual supplies. Melissa and her students committed to create a documentary that would raise awareness about the issue and to form a club called The Pad Project. Six years later, in 2019, that film, PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE., won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, and that club became the 501(c)3 nonprofit that I write to you about today.

Dear Friends and Family,Please join me and The Pad Project in the global fight for menstrual equality! The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." During the winter of 2021, I crafted over 100 circus themed ornaments and thought it would be fun to have a themed display. I wanted to add to the Pad Project's fundraising, so I am asking folks who enjoy the display to contribute to a good cause. Thank you for joining me in supporting the Pad Project. Charla Rae
