El Paso Will Provide Free Period Products in City-Owned Buildings

April 26, 2023

El Paso City Council unanimously voted on a program providing free pads and tampons in ALL city-owned buildings!

Such buildings include:

This new program will be implemented thanks to Reps. Alexsandra Annello, Isabel Salcido and Chris Canales, who placed the item on the city council agenda and used the City of Dallas’ program as a success story!

I am incredibly proud to see this resolution pass in the City of El Paso, which will help so many underserved communities and will help promote menstrual health, equity, and gender equality in our city. This will be a great step forward in addressing the importance of normalizing menstruation as well as toward promoting basic needs to the members of our community that experience menstruation.

Mayor Pro Tempore Annello

El Paso, we’re ready to stock those bathrooms with our organic cotton tampons and pads 🥳

Hi! I’m Claire. I founded Aunt Flow after getting my period in public without the supplies needed.

Founded in 2016, Aunt Flow is a certified WBENC women-owned company based in Columbus, Ohio. At 18 years old, I dedicated my life to developing a solution to ensure businesses and schools could sustainably provide quality period products, for free, in bathrooms. Our products are made with organic cotton (no weird stuff) and we are constantly working to reduce our environmental impact! For every 10 tampons and pads we sell, we donate 1 to a menstruator in need. I call this people helping people. PERIOD.®
