THINX : Change Your Underwear, Change The World
Sustainable feminine hygiene underwear for the developing world allowing better health and freedom.
Think makes underwear for woman with periods and uses the proceeds for social good and solving a complex health and empowerment issue in the developing world. Our products solve a great issue for girls and women as it relates to feminine hygiene. There has been little to no innovation in over 50 years in this category in the developed world alone. We launched our first patented innovation at the beginning of this year - a gorgeous undergarment that is absorbent, leak/stain-proof, anti-microbial and moisture-wicking (all hidden discreetly in the undergarment). Feminine hygiene is a massive issue in the developing world and is causing 100 million girls to miss school and millions of girls to drop out of school. We are solving this too by providing a pack of washable pads to girls in Uganda for every pair of high tech underwear sold. As we scale, so too will our impact across Africa and Asia.
