Rael is made by and for women—women of different shapes, sizes, colors, ages, orientations, backgrounds. Our foundation lies in empowering all women, and we manifest this vision by creating healthy period products that actually work.
Because every woman should have access to safe feminine care. Because every woman should feel empowered to make positive choices for their own bodies.
Unfortunately, pads and tampons—let alone quality pads and tampons—are inaccessible to millions of low-income and homeless women around the world. Dubbed “Period Poverty,” this epidemic continues to skyrocket year after year, even in our own backyard. Roughly 40 million Americans were reported to receive assistance from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program in 2018 and 19 million women are currently experiencing low-income, poverty or homelessness here in the United States. And while period products continue to be the most requested item made by homeless women and shelters, they remain untouched by government aid.
So, we’re giving back.
Because giving back helps us check our own privilege and do something about it. Because giving back allows communities to come together to fight poverty and lift each other up. Because, ultimately, giving back plants small seeds that blossom into a big, bold future.
While we fight for women’s empowerment and menstrual equality, we’re also honored to have partnered with #HappyPeriod to help fulfill their mission of serving the underserved and ending Period Poverty, starting with the women of Los Angeles.
