History

Flo Charlotte was started on accident. Its founder, Audrey Brewer, was talking to a friend about how people experiencing homelessness handle their periods without access to supplies. The thought had never occurred to her, but once she saw a need, doing nothing was not an option. So she posted on Facebook.

"Hey y'all, I'm thinking about taking some pads and tampons to the local homeless shelter. If you want to mail some to my house or bring them by, I'll drop off your donations as well!"

That week, she received no fewer than one hundred boxes of tampons, pads, and cleansing wipes. And thus, Flo Charlotte was born.
