Mission: I Support the Girls (ISTG) collects and distributes donations of new/used bras and new sealed packages of tampons and maxi pads to homeless women and girls across North America (and in 5 locations worldwide).

Women and girls who find themselves homeless shouldn’t have to worry about finding bras, much less proper menstrual products. Yet they wear the same bra for years (causing health problems) and each month have to make a choice between paying for meals or buying a box of tampons.

Every woman should have the ability to maintain her dignity! This is our mission- to restore dignity and self-respect to thousands of women.

Over the last 18 months ISTG has collected and distributed over 1,000,000 products, partnered with 225 organizations and helped over 170,000 girls and women maintain their dignity.





This organization provides Temporary or Permanent Service? Temporary

Notes:

How can you help? Support the Girls has 3 Texas affiliates in Dallas/Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio. Those cities are hosting evacuees in temporary city shelters. Our affiliates are receiving products and dropping them off on site at the shelters. Additionally, our affiliates in states bordering Florida and states affected by Irma are already working to collect and distribute products. If you would like to donate sealed menstrual products and/or new or washed gently used bras which will be distributed to girls and women affected by Hurricane Harvey, kindly mail products to:

I Support the Girls – SC
C/O Jordan Edem
P.O. Box 6352
Columbia, SC 29260

If I don’t have products, can I make a financial donation? Yes you can. Funds help us pay for storage, shipping and product distribution costs. You can donate via our Crowdrise campaign. You can also ship products via our Amazon wishlist.
