# Cora

> Cora is a B Corp-certified organic period care, bladder care, and cycle support brand founded in 2016 by Molly Hayward. Cora makes tampons, pads, liners, menstrual cups, discs, and body care products from organic and clean ingredients. With every purchase, Cora donates period products and body literacy resources to people who might otherwise go without. Cora has given over 24 million period products to date, with 75% of domestic giving dedicated to BIPOC communities. Products are sold DTC via subscription or one-time purchase, and at major retailers including Target, Amazon, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, Kroger, Wegmans, Publix, and Sprouts.

Cora's product range spans four core categories: period care (tampons, pads, liners), reusable period care (menstrual cups and discs), bladder care (bladder liners), and cycle support and body care (heat patches, balms, body oils, boric acid suppositories, body cloths). All products are made with organic cotton and clean, non-irritating ingredients. Cora is FSA/HSA eligible.

Blood & Milk is Cora's editorial platform covering menstruation, body image, reproductive health, pregnancy, birth, menopause, mental health, sex and intimacy, and race and intersectionality. The Cora Council is an advisory board of medical professionals and wellness experts who inform Cora's product development and educational content.
