10 meaningful ways to give period equity this season — donate, gift, or set someone up for a year of dignity and care.
The holidays are a time for giving. This year, we’re asking for one specific thing: menstrual justice. Instead of adding to the clutter, consider gifts that meet a basic human need and help dismantle stigma.
Why it matters: Period poverty and stigma still prevent millions from accessing the products, education, and dignity they need. When you give joni—whether money, products, or choice—you’re helping build a more equitable, regenerative period care system.
Ways to give period equity (and why they matter)
1. Donate directly to period equity organizations
The most immediate way to give menstrual justice. If your priority is direct impact, use our donations page to contribute to vetted charities working on access, education, and distribution. Monetary support enables organizations to respond to urgent needs and scale programs quickly.
2. Donate period care through direct product donations
Turn generosity into the products people actually need. With the Karma Donation Pack, you can make a one-off product donation or start a subscription. We handle logistics and partner matching so the pads and tampons go where they’ll be used most.
3. BLEED Coffee Table Book
BLEED is a gift that doesn’t disappear once it’s unwrapped.
It’s meant to be placed gently on a table, picked up often, and returned to—an invitation to reflect, start conversations, and challenge what we’ve been taught to keep quiet. Part art object, part archive of lived experience, BLEED is a thoughtful gift for anyone who believes bodies deserve dignity, stories deserve space, and periods deserve to be talked about—out loud.
4. Gift period underwear (yes, really)
Practical, sustainable, and stigma-busting. joni period underwear is PFAS-free, reusable, and designed to be dependable for up to 8 hours—making it both high-value and low-waste. It saves money long term and normalizes period conversations when it’s given and received openly. Choose from briefs or boyshorts!
5. Give the Retro Bundle
Form meets function. The Retro Bundle includes a period care organizer plus your choice of pads and tampons—an elegant way to create visible, dignified storage for something that’s too often hidden. It's great as a first-time period care bundle or anyone seeking more organization. Comes with stickers for decorating!
6. Choose a pre-designed bundle
Low effort, high impact. Our curated bundles are perfect when you want to give thoughtfully without the guesswork. Whether for someone you love or for yourself, it's a great way to try a few products at a time.
7. Gift a period care subscription
Consistent access = real equity. A subscription removes monthly worry and ensures the recipient always has what they need. Enter your payment details and add your loved one's address, and send them pads and tampons automatically for as long as you want. You'll give them peace of mind and comfort all year long, making it one of the most meaningful gifts you can give.
8. Buy in bulk & set someone up for the year
Planning ahead is a form of care. Buying a year’s supply or a bulk pack reduces cost per unit and removes monthly purchasing stress. It’s a practical, generous way to support students, family members, or community partners.
9. Give care with built-in impact
Every joni purchase supports our nonprofit partners. At least 2% of your purchase goes toward programs that expand access, education, and dignity. That means gifts, bundles, and subscriptions all contribute to a regenerative period care system. Shop anywhere on the site and you’re supporting impact work that's independently certified by B Corp.
10. Let them choose with a joni gift card
Choice is a respectful gift. A gift card lets recipients pick products that work best for their body and cycle. It’s flexible, considerate, and simple to give.
Give more than a present — give dignity
This holiday, the simplest acts can be the most radical. Donating, gifting usable period care, or choosing subscription support reduces shame, increases access, and helps shift cultural norms. That’s menstrual justice.
