Empowering Through Every Purchase: With each Angela jean sold, we proudly support Days for Girls, equipping young women with reusable menstrual pads and vital sexual health education.

Why This Cause? My passion for aiding children fueled the inception of this business. Partnering with Days for Girls felt right; not only do they empower girls with essential menstrual supplies, but they also invest in local businesses. This ensures every dollar spent on these health kits directly uplifts the very communities we aim to serve.

The Case for Reusable Pads:

  • Sustainable: On average, a woman discards 110,000 tampons in her lifetime. With limited waste disposal in many areas, bio waste piles up. Reusable pads are an eco-friendly solution.

  • Economical: Traditional pads are an ongoing expense. However, reusable pads, when maintained, can last up to two years, providing long-term relief.

  • Healthy: Disposable pads often contain harmful chemicals, which may pose health risks. In contrast, reusable pads and menstrual cups are sustainable, free from harmful chemicals, and overall healthier choices. And while it's surprising, tampon and pad ingredients aren't mandated to be listed, given their 'medical device' classification.

Water for All: Clean water is fundamental. Along with pads, The Angela commits to facilitating water access for every community we assist.
