Join the Menstrual Movement!
More than 20 US states have passed legislation requiring businesses, public spaces, or schools to offer freely accessible period products.
86% of women reportedly started their period in public without the supplies they needed. Providing Aunt Flow period products recuperates lost work hours and is just the freakin’ right thing to do.

Our mission is to fight period poverty and stigma! Alongside ensuring that businesses and schools offer free period products for employees and students, our donation program supports activist-led pilot program initiatives and various grassroots nonprofit organizations.

claire coder, founder + ceo
Hi! I’m Claire. I founded Aunt Flow after getting my period in public without the supplies needed.
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 and we are constantly working to reduce our environmental impact! Since 2021, we've donated MILLIONS of period products to menstruators in need. I call this people helping people. PERIOD.®
