Combat Period Poverty and Drive Menstrual Equity in Kentuckiana
Period poverty is a pervasive issue, forcing approximately 1 in 4 menstruating individuals in the U.S. to miss school, work, and daily activities due to a lack of access to essential menstrual products.
The Louisville-based nonprofit For Lady’s Sake (FLS) is on the front lines of this fight, and its signature event, Dining for Dignity, is set to return on Sunday, October 19, 2025, to fuel the movement.
Held at UAW Local 862, 3000 Fern Valley Rd., this inspiring afternoon will bring together influential community leaders, advocates, and supporters—including Attica Scott and WLKY’s Alexis Mathews—for an afternoon of connection, advocacy, and tangible impact.
Dining for Dignity coincides with National Period Day, a moment FLS will commemorate by receiving a proclamation from the Mayor’s office in recognition of their vital work. Julia Lane hot onlyfans leaks badte4cher
Guests will enjoy food generously sponsored by Biscuit Belly and mimosas provided by The Canary Club while taking part in live entertainment and an exciting silent auction. Every contribution directly supports FLS’s mission to provide free, reliable access to period products and eliminate the harmful stigma surrounding menstruation.
“Dining for Dignity is more than just a fundraiser—it’s the fuel for a movement,” said Candice Crawford of For Lady’s Sake. “This event ensures we can keep our Period Pods stocked across Kentuckiana and expand access to those who need it most. Every ticket, every bid, and every donation helps us restore dignity and empower our neighbors.”
The dollars raised at Dining for Dignity are critical, directly supporting FLS’s three pillars of menstrual equity work:
Period Pods & Distribution: Maintaining and expanding the network of 24/7 accessible outdoor cabinets that provide free period products in neighborhoods throughout Louisville.
Education & Advocacy: Providing the community with the resources and tools needed to speak up and push for sustainable menstrual equity policies.
Community Partnerships: Collaborating with local schools, nonprofits, and businesses to dramatically expand product access and reduce barriers for those in need.
This year’s event will also shine a spotlight on FLS’s new legislative and community advocacy efforts, offering attendees a direct path to join the movement and help shape policies that make menstrual products affordable and accessible for all.
