Globally, 1 out of 5 girls miss school during their periods, causing girls to fall behind and eventually drop out completely. Together with CVS Health, we've donated over 9,000 long-lasting period cups to help put girls back in school so when their period starts, their world doesn't have to stop. Thank you for helping us provide period care to those who need it most.
About us
Saalt creates high-performance period care products that empower people to care for themselves in a healthy and sustainable way. We foster a global community of people who make deliberate and clear choices in their lives—people who do more with less and have honest and inspiring conversations that bring awareness and help end menstrual shame. With our partners, we empower women and girls in need by providing education and life skills training. We understand that investing in women is the fastest and most effective way to change communities for the better. When you help a woman, you create change for generations.

We're committed to continuously advancing the education surrounding women's health and to providing best products for our bodies and our planet.
Heard the news about toxic heavy metals in tampons? Of course we’re happy that more awareness is being brought to safer products like Saalt Cups and Discs that are better for our bodies and the planet. But I’ve also noticed a sad pattern in people’s reactions to the news. Nobody is really surprised that trace amounts of these metals were found. We’ve come to expect that there are now so many environmental contaminants in our consumer products that they’re almost impossible to get away from. So the best we can really do is limit our exposure to them. What we ARE surprised about is that this is the first time we’ve seen a study of this kind, and it’s 2024. Women aren’t feeling surprised; we’re feeling TIRED. Tired of women’s health being de-prioritized in public health research. Tired of hearing that twice as much health research funding goes to diseases that disproportionately affect men over those that affect women. Tired of hearing that there have been 60 clinical trials studying the efficacy of Viagra, but the very first study to measure the absorbency of menstrual products happened last year, and the first to test for metal contaminants in tampons was released just a few days ago. Tired of knowing that tampon manufacturers aren’t required to test their products for harmful chemicals or disclose their ingredients on their packaging. Tired of knowing that we now have cars that go from 0-60mph in 1.9 seconds and computers we can carry in our pockets, but women have had the same tampons for the past 93 years that were patented by a man in 1931. And tired of knowing that we put a man on the moon over a decade before we got the innovation of the pad with wings in the 1980s. I was first introduced to the menstrual cup in my 30s and remember thinking, “How is it that I am an educated adult woman and never even knew this product existed?” The first menstrual cup was invented and patented by an American actress named Leona Chalmers in 1937, not long after the tampon was invented, yet it is far less known and adopted. Why are more Americans using disposable tampons patented by a man over a reusable product patented by a woman? Friends, we deserve better. I started Saalt because I simply wanted to get the word out that better options exist and create even better products for my 5 daughters and girls across the world starting their periods. So here’s my commitment to you, as a female leader making period care products. We’re committed to making the best and most innovative products that not only work, but also work for the health of our bodies and planet. We’re committed to being transparent about the ingredients in our products, proactively testing our products for harmful chemicals, and sharing the results. And we’re committed to using our influence as a company in the women’s health space to educate more people about menstrual and reproductive health. Let’s demand better and do better. -Cherie

RARE EVENT ALERT in BOISE📣 (Trust me, you'll want to get your ticket fast for this one...) On July 18th, I have the rare opportunity of sharing about Saalt alongside Days for Girls International founder Celeste Mergens right here at Trailhead in Boise! Here's why I am pinching myself.... For years, Celeste's journey to end period poverty and keep girls in school has inspired our impact at Saalt. She has been such an inspiration and mentor to me as a philanthropist and entrepreneur, so when I was invited to speak alongside her, I was floored. But it gets better. Celeste just released her new book, The Power of Days: A Story of Resilience, Dignity, and the Fight for Women's Equity and will be signing books in person at the event! I devoured her book on Audible last week, and Wow. It. Is. Powerful. I had no idea she overcame so much in her childhood to become who she is today. Bring your friends, your daughters, your partners, and anyone who cares about how to make tangible strides in women's progress. A huge thank you to the dynamite duo Marlene Myers & Marlene Robinson for making this happen! See you there! 👉 July 18th 2024 | Trailhead Boise | Doors open 5pm | just $10 Details & tickets here: https://lnkd.in/gD2W9Fc9

For Earth Day this year, Saalt is supporting EARTHDAY.ORG's “Planet vs Plastics” theme with an audacious goal to save 100M tampons from the environment by helping 33,000 people make the switch to Saalt Cups (1 cup displacing 3,000 tampons x 33,000 = 100M tampons!). Here’s how you can help: Step 1: If you’re a part of any group (organization, school, work, athletic team, sorority) that would benefit from making the collective switch to Saalt Cups & Discs, we’re offering a planetary-sized discount on Saalt Cups and Discs like nothing else we’ve ever offered for the month of April only. Email 👉 sayhey@saalt.com to get a unique code to share with your group. Step 2: Share this with your network! Let’s not let this Earth Day go to waste! 😉🌍
