Looking for a simple way to give back as a family this spring? Positive Charge! PDX’s Period Power Project offers an easy, meaningful opportunity for kids and adults to help others in the community.
From April 11 through May 10, families can pick up period supplies while shopping and donate them at 20+ drop-off locations across the Portland area. A special part of this project is creating simple, handmade cards of support — a great at-home activity for kids, classrooms, or families to spread kindness and encouragement.
Period products are not covered by programs like SNAP and WIC, leaving many without access to essential supplies. Donations will be assembled into care kits and distributed through local nonprofit partners.
Families are also welcome to attend a community packing event on May 16.
