Companies are already holding one of the most powerful tools for change. It's sitting in their procurement budget, largely untapped.
Good Period exists to prove it.
500 million women and girls around the world live in period poverty. In Hong Kong, it affects 1 in 10 (Plan International Report, 2025).
This shapes whether girls stay in school, whether women advance at work and whether communities thrive.
We believe we can end this in our lifetime. But the answer doesn't lie in philanthropy or donations.
While most companies have a CSR budget, it's dwarfed by their procurement spend. However, this everyday buying rarely gets directed towards impact.
Social procurement means choosing to buy from enterprises that put impact first.
With regulations around menstrual health in the workplace advancing, Good Period exists to make menstrual health the most obvious place to start.
A woman at work feels taken cared for in a moment of need.
Free, organic, sustainable period care in the washroom, always stocked. No embarrassment. No panic. No leaving early.
Her employer earns something no campaign can manufacture.
The quiet, felt signal that this company thought about her. A real moment, repeated daily, that builds genuine belonging.
A woman in her community receives care she couldn't afford.
Reusable products. Menstrual health education. No donation required. No extra budget line. Built into everything we do.
HOW WE'RE DIFFERENT
Most period poverty programmes donate single-use products. It's well-intentioned but it runs out, it creates plastic waste, and it creates dependency. Good Period does it differently.
Environmental Care
We fund reusable period care: products that last years, combined with education and ongoing community support. One intervention. Lasting change. No plastic.
Community-Drive
Our Ambassador program engages local communities to ensure our programs are relevant, empowering, and inclusive, giving people the tools and knowledge to thrive.
Sustainable Funding
Our programs are self-sustaining, fueled by revenue from Good Period-verified workplace partners, rather than relying on donation cycles, creating long-term change that scales.
OUR FOUNDING STORY
Social entrepreneur, Olivia, spent a decade working on menstrual health initiatives in Asia, including the launch of LUUNA in 2019—an award-winning period care company creating healthier, more sustainable product alternatives.
By 2025, LUUNA had implemented menstrual health amenities in over 150 companies across the region. But partners wanted more; training, education and deeper community engagement.
In parallel, Emily founded REEMI in 2018, an NGO designing climate-conscious reusable menstrual underwear and delivering them, alongside culturally-sensitive menstrual health education, to women in crisis worldwide.
In 2024, they joined forces.
What began as a pilot—bringing REEMI’s solutions to underserved communities in Hong Kong, funded by LUUNA’s social enterprise model - revealed an opportunity: an integrated approach to workplace menstrual health that replaces fragmented solutions, and turns procurement spend into a scalable driver of local community impact.
This is Good Period.
