Period Kit StartUp

A few weeks ago, I was watching a live game with my boyfriend and found out my period came early. I used my last emergency pad a few months ago, and I usually don't carry change. Thankfully my boyfriend had two quarters. However, the pads/tampon vending machine in the washrooms didn't work, and I was left using wads of toilet paper hoping it was just spotting until we get to a nearby Shoppers/Rexall. That being said, I realized there many homeless women and girls who don't get the opportunity to buy and/or carry menstrual hygienic products because they can't afford it, or they do have the money but it's to decide whether to have food on the table or menstrual hygiene products, is heartbreaking. And this is how KIPDY was born.



KIPDY is a social enterprise focused on supporting at-risk, homeless and trafficked youth in Toronto, and we provide every person with a period a sense of relief through monthly personalized menstrual hygiene and self care kit. These kits are filled with snacks, and featured items made by Greater Toronto Area's entrepreneurs/small businesses. For every 2 KIPDY kits sold, we will provide 2 month supplies of hygienic sanitary materials and toiletries to local homeless shelters within Toronto, as well as a program that teaches homeless youth about today's gig economy and employment opportunities to unlock their full potential.
