Together, We Are Powerful

Recent research has shown that 1 in 3 women have struggled to access their birth control as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court’s decision last week in Trump v. Pennsylvania will likely limit access to contraception even more as employers can now single contraception out and make women financially responsible for the cost of this most fundamental part of their reproductive well-being. 

Despite the challenges, our community continues to give us hope for a future where all young people have the power to decide. The incredible outpouring of support we’ve seen for birth control access has taught us that together, we are powerful.  

That’s why we’re partnering with Hims & Hers, a telehealth company that provides birth control and other health services to women in all 50 states. To show their support for birth control access for all, Hims & Hers is matching up to $5,000 in donations to our Contraceptive Access Fund

Here’s what your generosity can accomplish:

  • $5 gives a month of birth control pills to a person who needs it. 
  • $60 gives a year’s worth of birth control pills to a woman who needs them through a telehealth provider. 
  • $200 provides birth control pills for a year for 4 people, delivered right to their doors.

Together we’ve built an incredible community of support, helping more than 2,400 women access birth control so far. Donate today and double your impact because now more than ever we need your help.
