The Fabric of Our Community – Ep – Dana Marlowe, Founder of I Support the Girls

In Episode 6 of The Fabric of Our Community, hosts Joel Greenzaid, President & CEO of G Street Fabrics, and Emmy award-winning journalist Traci Mitchell sit down with the dynamic Dana Marlowe, founder of I Support the Girls, to explore how a single question—“What do people experiencing homelessness do for bras and menstrual hygiene?”—sparked a global movement for dignity, equity, and care.What began as a personal shopping trip quickly turned into a mission that would touch millions of lives. Dana’s grassroots nonprofit has since donated over 25 million products to people in need across all 50 states and beyond, providing essential items like bras, pads, tampons, and underwear to those often overlooked.In this powerful and eye-opening episode, Dana shares her journey from tech entrepreneur to social impact leader, the emotional stories behind her advocacy, and the challenges of scaling a movement built on empathy. With humor, humility, and passion, she dives into the issues of period poverty, gender equity, and the invisible struggles faced by people experiencing homelessness and displacement.Listeners will gain insight into how small, intentional actions can lead to transformative change—and why dignity is not a luxury, but a human right.Tune in now on your favorite podcast platform or watch the full episode on YouTube!
