how ooia supports female empowerment
Female Empowerment is the central mission of ooia. Our product contributes to this mission by enabling people to manage their periods more comfortably. But we strive to achieve more and therefore support various initiatives that promote gender equality and female empowerment.
cooperation with the
center for feminist foreign policyThe Centre for Feminist Foreign Policy is a non-profit organisation (gGmbH) and advocates for a feminist foreign policy that challenges the conventional standards of international politics. Feminist foreign policy aims to use all diplomatic and foreign policy tools to reduce systemic injustices and to put human safety first. Because only through this - instead of a focus on military strength and national security - can we achieve sustainable peace. No peace without feminism. ooia supports the CFFP as a visionary with an annual donation. Here you can learn more about the CFFP and the two founders Kristina Lunz and Marissa Conway.
cooperation with the
center for intersectional justiceThe non-profit organisation Center for Intersectional Justice (CIJ) in Berlin works to combat structural inequality and discrimination in Europe. ooia supports the CIJ with specific campaigns - for example, we donated 25% of our daily profits to the CIJ on November 26, 2021. If you want to learn more about CIJ and our cooperation, check out our interview with founder Emilia Zenzile Roig on Instagram.
cooperation with
sail to the copIn 2019, a group of 36 people sailed from Europe to Chile to attend the UN Climate Conference COP25. With this action, the organisation drew attention to the issue of sustainable travel. The group used the 7-week sailing trip for a Thinktank and worked on solutions for sustainable travel in the future. ooia provided all 26 crew members with ooia period underwear and also financially supported the entire crew. If you want to learn more, watch our interview with Hannah from Sail to the Cop.
cooperation with wash united on the
menstrual hygiene dayWe donated 28.5% of our daily profits to the initiators on 28.5.2021, the Menstrual Hygiene Day: Wash United.
Menstrual Hygiene Day pursues the vision "To create a world by 2030 where no woman or girl is disadvantaged because she menstruates." We support the movement, which fights for a world without period stigma and period poverty!

In October 2019, an art campaign for the prevention and early detection of breast cancer took place in over 15 cities in Germany - the LOVE YOUR BOOBS Artnight. Breast cancer is by far the most common disease among women*. To raise public awareness of the issue of breast cancer, ooia supported the LOVE YOUR BOOBS ARTNIGHT with a product donation.
