Our Steering Committee

Days for Girls International increases access to menstrual care and education by developing global partnerships, cultivating social enterprises, mobilizing volunteers, and innovating sustainable solutions that shatter stigma and limitations for women and girls. Envisioning a world where people have knowledge, products, and supportive environments to manage their periods, Days for Girls has reached over 3.5 million people in 150 countries since 2008.

Egal means equal and we believe pads should be as common as toilet paper. Our vision is for pads on a roll to be put in every toilet stall where they are needed most to ensure privacy, accessibility, and dignity for all who menstruate.

With more than 10,500 members – including distributors, manufacturers, manufacturer representatives, wholesalers, building service contractors, in-house service providers, residential cleaners, and associated service members – ISSA is the world’s leading trade association for the cleaning industry. The association is committed to changing the way the world views cleaning by providing its members with the business tools they need to promote cleaning as an investment in human health, the environment, and an improved bottom line. ISSA launched it’s End Period Poverty Campaign in 2022, because it believes menstrual-care solutions should be as available in away-from-home bathrooms as soap, toilet paper, and paper towels.

In 2013, The Pad Project was started by a youth-driven community of students and educators in Los Angeles who believed that “a period should end a sentence, not a girl’s education.” In 2019, The Pad Project’s documentary film, Period. End of Sentence., won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short. Since 2020, The Pad Project has distributed 4,000,000+ menstrual products worldwide.
