Spearheaded by a student leader in close partnership with the Health Promotion Office, this program provides high-quality, medical-grade silicone menstrual cups to interested individuals. To receive a cup, participants visit the Health Promotion Office, complete a brief survey, and receive tailored educational materials covering women&#8217;s health and environmental sustainability. This strategic distribution model ensures resources reach students who will actually utilize them while simultaneously gathering valuable data on the project&#8217;s overall success. By replacing thousands of single-use pads and tampons, the effort mitigates local landfill contributions, eliminates potential exposure to harmful chemicals, and alleviates the steep financial burden of purchasing monthly hygiene supplies. Ultimately, the campaign empowers students to make ecologically responsible choices that champion both planetary and personal wellness.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<!-- shortcode-column -->\n<div class=\"shortcode-column shortcode-column--count-2\">\n    \n<h5>Project Lead:<\/h5>\n<p>Janice Baldwin-Rowe<\/p>\n<h5>Date:<\/h5>\n<p>2020-01-21<\/p>\n<h5>Funding Amount:<\/h5>\n<p>$22,302.72<\/p>\n<h5>Department:<\/h5>\n<p>Health Promotions<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/136\/2026\/06\/Menstrual_Cups_2020_Project_Proposal.pdf\">Supporting Documents<\/a><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3002,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ring_central_script_selection":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5954","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5954","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3002"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5954"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5954\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5956,"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5954\/revisions\/5956"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/in.nau.edu\/green-nau\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5954"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
