PADS FOR YOU
– PADS FOR HER

From the first second nookees was founded, one thing was clear: we want to support all menstruating people all around the world.

In the past, whenever you bought nookees THE KIT, we donated PADS to people all over the world, that need our support. In the meantime we even go further: 2023 we started the nookees Foundation, proud to say we partnered up with the Toni Garrn Foundation, Girls on a mission and Viva con Agua to even make a bigger impact. They already built up amazing projects in Uganda and South Africa and now we are part of the tribe.

nookees provides the fabrics and pays the workers a loan to produce their version of nookees PADS and distribute them to everybody who needs support.

The Founder

Janina Breitling

After travelling the world for six years with my little son Max, I chose cruising through the universe of menstruation as my next adventure.

I got inspired by women in Cuba, who talked in front of their whole group of friends openly about how they menstruate. By the reindeer nomads in Mongolia, that shared their little tipi with us - and how they deal with their menstrual cycle. By the dancers in French Polynesia that moved their hips like nobody else to celebrate and honour their fertility.

Reflecting my own bloody habits every month, I somehow had enough of hiding my period. Of functioning every day of my cycle exactly the same. And I had enough of the reusable period products that I already used. That were uncomfortable (the sweaty feeling) not possible to wash hot (the disgusting feeling) and full of toxic ingredients (the wtf feeling).

From my mind came the idea of coloured buttons having a snappy date with organic fabrics. From my belly the will of inspiring others to live in line, instead against their cycle. And from my heart the call of providing menstruating people access to free period products all over the world.

    I remember a couple of years ago when I switched from tampons to period pads and just felt awful for the first time. I couldn't stand the feeling of something flowing out...
