Even’s low-cost period underwear is the first of its kind in the humanitarian sector.
Despite enduring displacement for an average of six years, refugees typically receive only 1-2 months’ worth of disposable pads. Evens underwear, priced at just £4, lasts for 5 years, and ensures menstruators in the most vulnerable circumstances have free, long-lasting access to the products needed to take care of themselves safely and with dignity.
For humanitarian organisations, Even's period underwear slashes costs by 80%, plastic waste by 75%, and warehousing volume by 90%.
