Overview

Mission

Public education related to the improvement of the lives of women and girls.

What it reported doing in 2024

Mass now is the founding convener of the ma menstrual equity coalition. It is comprised of 400+ menstrual advocates, and 100+ organizations coming together to end period poverty statewide. Mass now convenes stakeholders from across the state to share information and develop best practices for implementing period policy. Last year we partnered with 30+ community organizations to distribute over 500,000 quality menstrual products. All of our partner organizations reported a demand for menstrual products by a menstruator who needed one and relied on donations due to a lack of access. Additionally, we convened our feminist community through the following events: menstrual equity summit, international women's day breakfast, we make noise fest, and the feminist affair.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 75% for direct work, and 25% for grants.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
