A tea party celebrating menstrual health & connection in honor of Menstrual Health Day.
About this Event

As menstruators, we're deeply connected in many ways – our cycles being just one of them.

To deepen this connection, join us for a one-of-a-kind tea party to celebrate women’s health & wellness in honor of Menstrual Health Day.

Through gentle movement, interactive activities, and engaging conversations, we'll cover:

  • Menstruality consciousness and wellness practices to live happier, healthier lives from puberty to menopause
  • Local and global issues surrounding period poverty & stigma and ways to make a difference!

Surge for Water is honored to bring this program to you in partnership with amazing local organizations: She Votes IL, The Period Collective, & UIC Blood Buds

W e can't wait to share a lovely afternoon over tea, coffee, and light refreshments. To help set the mood, “period” inspired clothing is encouraged – but not required. Think red, pink, etc.

Special thanks to Catalyst Ranch for hosting us!

This event is open to all menstruators (pre & post included).

Speakers & facilitators:

🩸 Abigail Suleman & Zeenat Muhammad: Co-Founders - UIC Blood Buds

🩸 Neelam Patel: Founder - The Pause for Women

🩸 Maureen Keane: Co-Founder - She Votes Illinois

🩸 Shilpa Alva, Host & Facilitator: Founder & Executive Director - Surge for Water

--

Menstrual Health Day is an annual awareness day to highlight the importance of good menstrual hygiene management at a global level.

Surge for Water is a 501c3 nonprofit that partners with communities with safe water, sanitation, hygiene and menstrual health solutions to help end the cycle of poverty.
