For School Administrators and Nurses
Bring Pads for Peers to Your School
Pads for Peers helps schools provide free menstrual care products to students through a simple, discreet monthly Comfort Box program—with minimal effort required from staff.
Express InterestHelping students access what they need, while keeping the process easy for schools
In many schools, students who need menstrual products often have to rely on informal solutions—asking the nurse, going to the office, or trying to manage without what they need. That can be uncomfortable for students and inconsistent for staff. Pads for Peers was created to make menstrual care products more accessible to students who need them, while also helping schools offer support in a way that is organized, discreet, and easy to manage.
What We Do
Comfort Box Program
Our core program is the Comfort Box Program. Through this program, participating students receive free monthly menstrual care products in a way that protects privacy and keeps pickup simple. Students enroll privately and pick up their kits at school in a way that is discreet and predictable.

We Help Your School Get Set Up
We work with you to onboard your school, share materials, posters, and all material you will need to make this a success at your school.
Students Sign Up Privately
Students scan the QR code on the posters to discretely enroll and choose the products they need. Students without access to a mobile device can sign up using a link.
Simple Pickup at School
We deliver Comfort Boxes every month to the school. Students pick up discreetly from a designated location such as the front office or nurse's office.
What the School Needs to Do
We understand that school staff has plenty to do. So we designed Pads for Peers to be easy for schools to support. In most cases, the school only needs to provide a designated student pickup location, display student posters in appropriate places, and hand boxes to students when they come to pick them up.
