We send disposable and reusable period products directly to individuals and through partner organizations to serve individuals throughout the state. We host donation drives to collect period products and participate in distribution fairs and drives to hand out products to those with basic needs insecurities. Our objective is to provide free menstrual products to those in need while also advocating for systemic change in the government, community, and school levels. In the long term, we want to effect changes to address menstrual inequity and ensure people menstruating lead healthy, full lives. Since our inception in 2020, Mai Movement Hawaii has successfully established itself as a trusted provider in the community. No local organizations are singularly focused on tackling period poverty and menstrual inequity through a multi-pronged approach of programs and services, advocacy, and local-based education. Mai Movement Hawaii is a locally grown grassroots organization and 501(c)3 nonprofit founded by Native Hawaiian sisters, Brandy-Lee Yee, Nikki-Ann Yee, and Jamie-Lee Kapana in October 202.We at Mai Movement Hawai'i believe it is our kuleana, or responsibility, to ensure all individuals of menstruation age have access to sanitary products, safe and hygienic places to use them, and the right to manage their bodies without shame or stigma. Mai Movement is not simply about providing products, but it intersects our advocacy and education efforts in every program we run to guarantee systemic change for a radically improved future for girls, women, and people who menstruate. Moreover, being a Native Hawai'ian, women-led organization, Mai Movement is deeply committed to menstrual equity because of our personal experiences with menstruation and our heritage. Menstruation and period poverty is still not widely viewed as a critical issue, especially in comparison to housing or food insecurity, but we are still working to change that. The current economic situation remains bleak for a majority of local households, and has only exacerbated social, racial, gender, and economic inequalities that existed. Moreover, the growing hostility towards reproductive rights makes our work more critical than ever. Not only are we taking down access, economic, and social barriers around menstruation, but we are empowering a generation to advocate for themselves and their community. There has been incredible growth in our statewide distribution. In November-December 2020, we distributed 23,900 disposable period products. In our first full year of distribution in 2021, we sent out 226,204 disposable and reusable period products. The number of products sent out statewide increased by 60% in 2022 with a distribution of 362,800 disposable and reusable period products. In 2023, we distributed nearly 459,000 disposable and reusable period products, making us the only organization focused on distributing period products to address the needs of individuals affected by the Maui wildfires. And in 2024, we distributed nearly 207,000 disposable and reusable period products. In the 2024 Hawai'i State Legislature, we introduced bills and resolutions to make period products free and available in state buildings. $400,000 was allocated in the state budget for the Department of Accounting and General Services to implement the initiative. In our efforts to build community and coalitions around our legislative work, we continue to teach community members how to lobby and advocate for the passage of bills to address period poverty. We have also run a statewide campaign, Malama Your Mai, to raise donations and recognize Period Poverty Awareness week in May since 2021. This past year, we traveled to Maui, Kauai, Oahu and Hawaii Island to host kit making with volunteers and our partner organizations. All kits made on island were donated to our partner organizations on that island. 0 66447 66447 Brandy-Lee Yee Co-Founder 10 0 Nikki-Ann Yee Co-Founder and President 40 0 Leigh Mamuad Operations Director 20 8000 Airabella Molina Community Engagement Coordinator 20 8000 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 HI Nikki-Ann Yee 1471 Ala Hekili Place Honolulu HI 96819 2028551066 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 3754 62675 125647 99415 62402 353893 3754 62675 125647 99415 62402 353893 353893 51107 0 51107 405000 X 3754 62675 125647 99415 62402 353893 3754 62675 125647 99415 62402 353893 353893 0 0 0 51107 0 51107 3754 62675 125647 150522 62402 405000 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 In 2023, the organization hosted an in-person fundraiser that generated a one-time increase in contributions and event income.
