Our Impact.

The past year has been another meaningful one for the Periods for Hope team, with many learnings and exciting events. Our team is grateful to have had the opportunity to continue positively impacting the lives of those in our surrounding communities and to keep working to achieve our mission and vision. In summary, in 2023:

  • We ran three train-the-trainer workshops with 43 adults, reaching over 1,800 beneficiaries.

  • Our workshops led to 1/5 of adults reporting an increase in sexual and menstrual knowledge, and 100% feeling more positive talking about menstruation.

  • We donated 83 reusable pads to girls around the Western Cape.

  • We hosted and facilitated the inaugural Cape Town Period Collective Workshop.

  • We successfully completed all admin to obtain PBO status.

  • We raised R60,000 through crowdfunding.

It is only though your support and generous donations that our team is able to do the work that we are so passionate about. In another year where the gender-based violence war continued to rage on the women and girls of our country, we became ever more driven to continue fighting the stigma around menstruation, educating where we can, and spreading love to those in our surrounding communities.

Thank you to everyone!
