Helping end period poverty with the help of Period Austin

We spent Sunday on Rainey Street working with PERIOD’s Sunday Bloody Sunday! The non profit was originally developed because of the lack of menstrual supplies in the homeless community. As stated on their website, the nonprofit’s goals are to give women access to the period products they need to feel confident and clean every menstruation cycle, no matter their income.

As a 100% female funded and operated business, it was an absolute no-brainer to get involved with their Sunday Bloody Sunday bar crawl. The event was hosted by the Austin PERIOD chapter to raise awareness in our community and contribute funds and supplies to Austin’s homeless shelters. There were eight bars involved including: Augustine, The Alibi, Javelina Bar, Lucille Patio Lounge, The Parlor Room, Container Bar, Clive and Lustre Pearl. Each bar served a signature period themed drink of their choice and a portion or all the proceeds were donated to Periods ATX.

We wanted our install at Container Bar to be as unique as the crawl itself! We brought in our white streamer backdrop and incorporated red tinsel scattered throughout. The streamer install was in the front entrance of the bar so it was the first thing guests saw when they walked in. We were in the perfect location for a photo op so we paired it with Oh Happy Day Booth’s selfie station!

Our white streamer backdrop is beautiful and a stand out as is, but it can also be a great base for adding more color or other fringe! Contact our sales team today to see how you can incorporate this install at your next event! kati@popanddroptx.com
