HERFight x Narika
We are excited to announce our partnership with Narika for the HERFight x Narika Hygiene Drive! From January 22 to March 5, we will be accepting monetary donations, as well as non-monetary donations such as sanitary napkins, soap, and masks in order to make hygiene kits that will be distributed to survivors of abuse. Each kit will contain one pack of sanitary napkins, a travel-sized bottle of shampoo, conditioner, and soap, non-perishable snacks and items, household items such as detergent, dish soap, or toothbrushes, sanitizer, wipes, toilet paper, and a hand-written card with an empowering message. This will permit the survivor with enough essentials to make it through a month.

All monetary donations are tax-deductible and should be made to the donation link below. Your donation will be used to buy materials such as hygiene products (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, body scrubs, tampons, pads) household items (laundry detergent, dishwashing detergent, etc) snacks (nuts, candy) self-care items (makeup, nail polish) and gifts cards (Visa, Amazon), etc. You will receive a receipt in your email after contributing.

What is Narika?
Narika was founded in 1992, by immigrant women who identified the need for culturally responsive and linguistically diverse domestic violence services in the Bay Area. Embracing the notion of safety, empowerment and wellness, Narika addresses the unmet needs of survivors of abuse by providing advocacy, support, information, and referrals within a culturally sensitive and linguistically diverse model. Narika has helped thousands of individuals put abuse and violence behind them and build new lives for themselves.
