  Day of Action for Menstrual Equity!

  Main Library, Community Room, 449 Broadway, Cambridge, MA 02138

  Join the Girl Up New England Coalition and the Cambridge Public Library for a Day of Action for Menstrual Equity! Together, we will assemble sustainable period kits for local girls in need, while hearing from youth advocates, local entrepreneurs, and other women leaders speaking out against period poverty in Cambridge and beyond. You’ll learn about the impacts of period poverty in New England and find out how you can support the I AM Bill, which would offer free period products in MA schools. Speakers for this event include former Mayor of Cambridge Sumbul Siddiqui and MA State Senator Patricia Jehlen! NOTE: While registration is preferred, it is not required. Walk-ins are welcome! Girl Up is a United Nations Foundation initiative for gender equality, uniting girls to change the world.
