An EveryGirl. Update
Period poverty affects millions of girls and women—but it doesn’t have to. In 2025, EveryGirl. was launched to confront this challenge head-on, providing access to reusable and disposable menstrual products while restoring dignity and opportunity. From local communities in the U.S. to villages across the globe, EveryGirl. is transforming lives through compassion in action.
As we began sharing the need, the response has been deeply encouraging. Churches across Oregon have sewn and sent hundreds of reusable pads to Ethiopia. Individuals have donated nearly 50 menstrual kits that we’ll be taking with us to Nepal this month. One woman is even returning to her hometown in Guyana with kits, patterns, and a vision—partnering with her local church to teach others how to run the EveryGirl. program in their own community.
Closer to home, five churches around the country have committed to distributing disposable menstrual products to girls and women in their own neighborhoods—meeting real needs where they live.
Since the start of October, Ultimate Mission and Hills & Valleys Adventist Church have been collaborating with one another by opening their doors to the marginalized women in the community by offering a FREE Clothing Boutique. This project is an enhancement to our EveryGirl. program which provides women access to free feminine hygiene items while also allowing them an opportunity to find FREE and new to them clothing for upcoming job opportunities, court appearances, or just an overall sense of change. This project, which has been built around the generous donations of clothing from local consignment shops, has been a game changer for the women who are reclaiming their identity from trauma & addiction and giving them a new sense of confidence that we have been able to witness firsthand, which is just one of the few reasons why we have decided to continue to keep our doors open throughout the coming weeks.
With gratitude and anticipation, we look forward to sharing more testimonies, photos, and videos of the women we are honored to serve—both here at home and around the world. The story of EveryGirl. is still being written, and we can’t wait to show you what your support continues to make possible.
