In this podcast at The Disruptors for Good podcast, Grant speaks with Claire Coder, Founder of Aunt Flow, about quitting college at 19 to start an organic tampon company and fighting for women’s menstrual issues.
Aunt Flow is the most efficient solution to provide organic menstrual products for free to employees, students, and guests. 500+ companies have joined the menstrual movement.
The whole thing with Aunt Flow started when Claire got her period unexpectedly in public without the supplies I needed. As you can imagine, after that she went on a mission to ensure EVERYONE had access to quality menstrual products.
The social enterprise now stocks over 500 companies and schools with freely accessible menstrual products. For every 10 tampons and pads, Aunt Flow sells, they donate 1 to a menstruator in need. The company calls these people helping people. PERIOD.®
So far, they have donated over 500,000 menstrual products to menstruators in need in the USA. Check out her blueprint and journal of how she raised $1.5 million here.
In this episode of Aunt Flow & CauseArtist they talk about:
- Dropping out of college
- Menstruation legislation
- Organic tampons
- Raising $1.5 million
- Pivoting the business from B2C to B2B
