Our mission is to promote health education, with a primary focus on menstrual equity, period poverty, and providing comprehensive reproductive and sexual health education.

Scrub Life Cares increases access to menstrual health resources and comprehensive reproductive and sexual health education in Title 1 schools to promote student well-being, dignity and equity.

Scrub Life Cares is a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting health equity and empowering women and girls in underserved communities. Our mission focuses on addressing period poverty, providing comprehensive reproductive and sexual health education, and fostering safe spaces for open conversations to eliminate stigma around menstruation and hygiene.

At the heart of our organization is our Grow With the Flo program, which operates in two key areas: Grow With the Flo Afterschool Program and Grow With the Flo Community Program. The Afterschool Program is designed for female students aged 9-18 who come from households living below the Federal Poverty Line. We provide participants with menstrual and hygiene products, teach life skills, and host special guest presenters to educate and inspire. This program not only equips students with essential knowledge about menstrual health but also fosters confidence and self-empowerment. The Grow With the Flo Community Program extends our mission to the broader public. By hosting health workshops, expos, and educational sessions, we raise awareness about menstrual equity and reproductive health.

Testimonials

Scrub Life Cares is such an incredible part of our community. They do so much more than provide period products. They create a space where women feel seen, heard, and respected. Their events are always welcoming; you can tell the team genuinely cares about making a difference. What I love most is how they educate without judgment, helping women better understand their reproductive health in a way that feels supportive, not overwhelming. The team are amazing and always positive.- S. Jones
