Host a Kit Packing Party

Sylvia’s Sisters provides menstruators with period product kits — a neat, discreet package that contains a variety of period products to last them through their cycle. A great way to help fight period poverty is to host a kit packing party.

fill out kit packing inquiry form

Period product kit packing parties are a wonderful community service opportunity that supports women’s health equity in Richmond and beyond. You will directly impact a menstruator’s ability to stay in school or earn a living.

We’ve hosted parties with large corporations like Altria, Dominion and McKesson. We also host parties with small local businesses, church groups, book clubs, community associations, and more.

  • We provide all supplies for your kit packing party.
  • You can come to us, or we can come to you.
  • Sylvia’s Sisters staff members or volunteers will run the event.
  • At least 6 weeks notice is preferred, but if you have a date sooner–reach out! Sometimes we can make it work.
  • At least 10 attendees are needed. If you don’t have that many, let us know. We can often combine smaller groups.

“Partnering with Sylvia’s Sisters for a kit-building event was a great way for our department to spend an afternoon together. It was fun for team-building and networking but also important support for youth in our community.”
