Our Story

The Period Pantry

Maryland's Answer to Menstrual Inequity

Contact Us

Get to Know Us

The Period Pantry grew from a girl's determination to eradicate period poverty after seeing it herself, growing up in Baltimore. There are many period pantries, but ours is different because we aim to help victims — they're everywhere. We work with domestic violence shelters, homeless shelters, addiction recovery centers and our allies at Baltimore Safe Haven.

Do you feel the same fire we do for this injustice?

Try our many programs to get active in our battle:

  • Volunteering
  • Student Volunteering
  • Student Ambassador Program
  • Host a Pantry or Donation Station
  • Open a Period Pantry Outside of Maryland
  • Donate to our hub in Pasadena, MD
  • Join us at our Girl Power Party on 8/15

An Essential Edge in Menstrual & Reproductive Equity

Comprehensive Reproductive Care:Beyond Period Products

We believe that true menstrual and reproductive equity goes beyond pads and tampons. That's why we proudly provide barrier-free access to Plan B emergency contraception and OPill (over-the-counter daily birth control) alongside our period supplies. In a time when reproductive healthcare access is under pressure, we ensure these vital items are available with total dignity, zero judgment, and completely free to those in need.

Plan B Emergency Contraception

Reliable, accessible emergency contraception provided free to women facing economic hardship and emergency situations.

OPill (Daily Birth Control)

The first over-the-counter daily birth control pill, made fully accessible through our community distribution and nationwide H.O.P.E. kits.
