Below is everything you need to make your party a success.
By throwing a Detox the Box party you can help to spark dialogue between friends and de-stigmatize the topic of menstrual and vaginal health. The kit offers plenty of tips to help you take action and ways you can start to make changes in your home, community, and beyond to ensure period and personal care products are safe and accessible for all. Now that’s worth a party!!
