💜 CAPTION

Four years. 7,000 period products. One school that chose to say — no girl goes without. 💜

Back in 2023, Promise Hill Project partnered with @goauntflow to install a free period products dispenser at @miami_trace_panthers — Miami Trace High School in Washington Court House, Ohio.

Every year since, we have returned to restock it with clean, safe, organic pads and tampons. No coins. No cost. No questions asked.

To date, 7,000 period products have been provided to the female students at Miami Trace — keeping girls in class, comfortable, and cared for.

We are so grateful to the entire Miami Trace team — and especially to Kylie, District Operations & Communications Coordinator, who put together this incredible explainer video showing exactly how it all works. 💜

This is what fighting period poverty looks like in practice. Not a one-time donation — a four-year commitment. And counting.

If your school, business, or organization is interested in hosting a period products dispenser — reach out to us. Let’s make it happen. 💜

Back to school — fresh, clean, and confident. That is exactly how we want every child to start their year. 🎒💜

On August 4, 2026, Promise Hill Project returned to the Mt. Sterling Community Center Back-to-School event in Ohio for the 4th consecutive year — and we brought everything we had.

We distributed 16,070 personal care products across 100 hygiene bags and 50 period product backpacks — each packed with 4 months of supplies for females in need.

Because no child should walk into their first day of school without feeling clean, cared for, and confident. 💜

A huge thank you to our incredible Ohio volunteers — Sara, Kylie, Deanna, Kate, and Michelle. From setup to teardown, you brought such warmth and positivity to every single person who came through our booth. We are so proud of you. 💜

23 girls. One powerful day. 💜

Promise Hill Project’s Kenya Female Empowerment Program held its 4th event of 2026 — and this one stayed with us.

23 teenage girls between the ages of 15 and 17 gathered for a full day of guided sessions focused on what it truly means to grow into yourself with confidence, strength, and self-worth.

Together they explored:

💪 Physical health — exercise, nutrition, and knowing when to ask for help
💆 Emotional & mental wellness — journaling, boundaries, and healthy expression
🤝 Social health — how to choose friends who share your values and lift you higher
🩸 Menstrual health & hygiene — open, honest, and without shame

They identified their strengths, their values, their talents, and their triggers. They talked about what they want in relationships — loyalty, honesty, support, and love. And they showed up for each other in a way that was nothing short of beautiful. 💜

Every girl left with a Promise Hill backpack, pads, and underwear. But more than that — they left visibly empowered. Some were already asking for extra materials to share with their friends.

A special thank you to our Program Director in Kenya, Jacque, for overseeing this event with so much dedication, heart, and care. She is truly amazing — and none of this would be possible without her. 💜

That is what this work looks like. That is why we keep showing up.

Texas summer tried to stop us. It didn’t. 🌞💜

Our 4th outreach of 2026 with @loveunderthebridge is a wrap — and this one was something special.

With temperatures hitting 99 degrees, our volunteers could have stayed home. Instead they showed up — with full hands, full hearts, and not a single complaint.

This month we added something new — special hydration kits packed with sunscreen, cooling wipes, SPF lip balm, and aloe gel. Because serving people in the Texas heat means thinking about what they need right now. 💜

And for the first time at an outreach event, we distributed reading glasses — the beautiful result of our founder Lisa’s birthday fundraiser. Watching someone pick up a pair and finally see clearly? That never gets old.

To our one brave new volunteer and every returning face we love — you made a real difference on one of the hottest days of the year. We are so proud of every single one of you. 💜

We went to Kenya to show up for women and girls. What we heard changed us.💜

22 women and girls from the Maasai and Samburu communities sat with our team in open discussion – a safe space many had never experienced before. They left with food, feminine hygiene products, and a Promise Hill backpack.

But our program leader, Jacque, brought back something that no one can unsee.

Forced marriage. Child marriage. Sexual abuse. Female genital mutilation. Forced abortions. Not as distant from their daily reality as stories.

We share this because silence protects the wrong people.

And yet there is light. As communities move toward cities, change is quietly taking root. Some girls are choosing their own futures. Education is beginning to reach places it never has before. 💜

To Jacque – thank you for sitting in that pain, so these women felt heard. Your heart and courage embody the very best of this work.💜

We will keep showing up. We will keep telling the truth.

No girl should ever have to choose between her education and her dignity. 💜

Promise Hill Project partnered with @womenoftomorrow to deliver feminine hygiene kits to girls in and around Detroit, Michigan — each one packed with 3 to 4 months of pads, wipes, and disposable baggies.

These kits reached mentees at three incredible partner schools:
📍 Crockett Midtown High School of Science and Medicine
📍 Detroit Lions Academy High School
📍 Hamtramck High School

In the words of Women of Tomorrow: “The donated period packs helped mentees feel prepared, supported and cared for during the school day. By providing essential hygiene products, this gift helped remove a common barrier so girls could stay focused, confident, and fully participate in school.”

This is exactly why we show up. One kit can mean the difference between a girl missing class — or staying fully present in her own future. 💜

To Women of Tomorrow and every mentee we had the honor of supporting — thank you for trusting us with this work.

In 2019, a private donor came to the Promise Hill Project with a wish — to address the most basic need of life in a big way. 💧

Seven years later, that wish has become reality for 841 people living in impoverished communities in India and Kenya.

Three water well projects. Two continents. One extraordinary human being who believed that clean water — the foundation of all life — should never be a privilege.

Because of this partnership, entire villages now have continual access to clean water, improved sanitation, and better hygiene. Children stay in school. Women no longer walk miles to fetch water. Families stay healthy. Communities thrive.

To our private donor — you know who you are. What you have given these communities is not just water. It is life itself. 💜

This Easter, access to proper meals became possible for residents in Mount Sterling, Ohio. This tiny village is labeled as a food desert, where access to fresh, nutritious food is extremely limited.

Through this outreach, food vouchers for turkey and ham were provided to 95 families and 189 individuals, giving them the opportunity to enjoy a meaningful holiday meal with their loved ones.

Because something as simple as a holiday meal should never feel out of reach.

A heartfelt thank you to the incredible team at Mount Sterling Community Center for opening your doors and allowing us to be a part of this very special outreach event.

✨ Together, we continue to show up where it matters most

21 times under the bridge. And every single time it feels like the first 

In April, our Promise Hill team partnered once again with Love Under the Bridge for our 2nd outreach event of 2026 – and we brought everything we had.

 100 meals · 200 pieces of baked chicken

 24 lbs of baked beans · 9 lbs of potato salad with deviled eggs

 40 lbs of fresh oranges

 100 bottles of clean drinking water

 1,500 hygiene supplies

 8 feminine hygiene kits – each packed with 4 months of supplies

And when some of our friends living under the bridge couldn’t walk to us – we walked to them. Because showing up means meeting people exactly where they are. 

Our volunteer team was incredible. Three new volunteers joined us for the very first time, and so many familiar, beautiful faces came back. We took a moment during Volunteer Appreciation Week to celebrate every single one of them – because this work doesn’t happen without them.

To our volunteers, our donors, and everyone who believes in this mission – thank you. You are the reason we keep going.
