From girlnowwomanlater.org/new-programs-launching-fall-2026 ↗About this program
Georgia still taxes period products as ‘non-essential,' with no statewide requirement for free products in schools or public facilities. Georgia lawmakers are currently considering bills to eliminate this tax.
The average monthly cost of period supplies is $20 , and it puts real strain on families already living below the poverty line. While we advocate with lawmakers, were working to ease that burden ourselves, one drop-box, one workshop, one relationship at a time.
