Mardi Bras Returns for 2026!

Host a Party and ask Guests to Bring Feminine Products
Celebrate “Mardi-Bras” this year by throwing a joyful, colorful get-together with your friends, family, faith group, coworkers, or student crew. Add some beads, music, and laughter—and give your party a purpose by asking guests to bring bras, underwear, and period products to donate.
These much-needed items support local women and girls experiencing homelessness right here in our community.
A monthly period costs about $25, which is simply out of reach for many moms, daughters, aunts, and BFFs living in poverty.
Your Mardi-Bras celebration can spread dignity, confidence, and care while you celebrate together. It’s a feel-good way to have fun, help others, and make a real difference—one donation at a time.
On Saturday, Feb. 21st, bring all your fabulous donations to the Mardi-Bras party at the Inferno Restaurant in Independence, Oregon. Join us from 2:00–5:00 PM for an afternoon of fun, friendship, and giving back—because generosity is always in style!

During our first event last year, we collected 83 bras, 74 undergarments, and 1,869 tampons and pads! These were distributed to our housing programs and to those we serve through homeless outreach. This year, our goal is to double those contributions.
