December 2020 NGO Highlight: Flo Code
The Flo Code Story
Our December 2020 NGO highlight of the month is the amazing Austin based organization named Flo Code. Flow Code was founded by Ms. Lamanda Ballard, who serves as the Executive Director. Since 2017 Ms. Ballard, along with her team and community volunteers, have grown a once charitable gesture into a well managed organization. Their work directly fights against the “Pink Tax”, which is still a relatively unspoken disadvantage facing many women all over the world. Over this time Flo Code has donated over 336,514 and serviced over 52,932 periods
Flo Code is the leading support organization in the Texas community donating over 500,000 menstrual products to nonprofits, shelters, schools and natural disaster victims. At Flo Code we work to advance the common good by focusing on health, education and social injustice in our community. We also strive to educate, bring awareness to and end the stigma of menstruation in our society. Continuously encouraging our volunteers to make a difference by attending our Flo Parties and advocating for underprivileged women's health. Learn more at flocode.org.
