About Us
The Red Basket Project is a Dubuque-based organization that was established in 2016 to address the issue of period poverty. We collaborate with local agencies to provide menstrual hygiene products to individuals who are experiencing poverty or homelessness. Our goal is to ensure that everyone has access to these essential products, which can have a significant impact on their health, dignity, and overall well-being. We believe that access to menstrual products is a basic human need, and we are committed to making difference in our community.
