Purple PEERiod Project

The Purple PEERiod Project (PPP) is a student-led initiative operated by the Office of Student Activities in partnership with the Undergraduate Student Government. The program ensures that all students have access to free menstrual care products and reproductive health resources on campus.

Menstrual products are essential hygiene items, yet many students experience period poverty: the inability to afford or access menstrual care. This can lead to missed classes, stress, and barriers to full participation in academic and campus life. The Purple PEERiod Project works to eliminate this barrier by providing free and accessible products to students who need them.

Through PPP, students can access pads, tampons, menstrual cups, condoms, and educational materials that promote menstrual health and reproductive wellness. The program also distributes care packages and hosts awareness initiatives that help reduce stigma around menstruation while empowering students with accurate information about their bodies and health.

The Purple PEERiod Project is more than a product distribution program. It is a student-driven effort to advance equity, dignity, and health on campus. By removing financial and social barriers to menstrual care, PPP helps ensure that every student can focus on their education and fully engage in campus life.
