Follow the Dots — From Dignity to Sovereignty
MISSION:
The Red Dot Project, under AWN Cares, advances menstrual dignity and financial sovereignty by reclaiming the Red Dot as a symbol of remembrance, celebration, and liberation. We provide safe products and wellness tools, create intergenerational pathways of mentorship and enterprise, and weave innovation with tradition.
Through the Red Dot Bags, Red Dot Boxes, and Truth Dots, we are building a movement where girls, women, and communities move beyond silence and stigma into sovereignty and strength
VISION: A world where every cycle is honored, every girl is celebrated, and every woman has the resources, knowledge, and power to thrive.
WHY IT MATTERS: Millions still struggle for safe menstrual care and education. But we know you can’t address period dignity without addressing poverty itself. The Red Dot Project pairs access with education and opportunity, transforming a basic need into a pathway of sovereignty, remembrance, and celebration.
The Ladybug: Our Symbol of Remembrance & Renewal
Our ladybug is more than a sweet companion—it holds deep meaning for the Red Dot Project.
-
Red: The vibrant color of life, vitality, and power. It’s the hue of blood that connects us across cycles.
-
Seven dots on each wing: The number 7 is sacred in many traditions—representing completion, spiritual wisdom, and divine alignment. Fourteen dots in total remind us that every cycle carries a full moon’s truth and our lineage’s strength.
-
Round body: A circle—a symbol of wholeness, continuity, and the unbroken flow of life. It reminds us that womanhood is cyclical, sacred, and resilient.
When you open your Red Dot Bag and see our ladybug symbol, remember: you are supported, you are honored, and you are part of a movement that transforms silence into sovereignty.
