Week of Action: Project Period.
June 8-12, 2026
UWRC’s Week of Action: Project Period. will take place June 8–12. For the third year in a row, we’re focusing on period insecurity and working together to ensure more members of our community have access to the essential menstrual products they need each month.
We’re inviting you to get involved by volunteering at one of our six sites across the region we cover: Cabell, Wayne, Lincoln, and Mason counties in West Virginia, and Gallia and Lawrence counties in Ohio.
Volunteers will help assemble period kits filled with tampons, pads, and wipes for distribution at each participating site. There are also opportunities to add a personal touch by writing encouraging messages and decorating small canvas bags included in each kit.
Each volunteer will receive a Project Period–branded water bottle as a thank-you for their time and support. Click the Volunteer button to signup!
