We are proudly a formal partner with the Access to Necessities- Period campaign and community initiative.
Each year, during the month of February, I, along with Mikela Correia, collect menstrual hygiene products to donate to local organizations who are in need. We distribute these menstrual products throughout the year to community organizations.
Founded by Mikela in 2019, Access to Necessities-Period highlights a need in our community, along with the rest of Canada , that is underserved.
1 in 4 Canadian women have to choose between food or period products.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Women often set aside their own needs to take care of the needs of others, like their family and young children.
In lieu of these products women will often resort to lining their underwear with towels, tissue paper, newspaper and socks. This can create hygiene concerns and possibly cause infections.
We are committed to serving the ongoing needs of our community with your help!
You can make a difference by donating feminine hygiene products during our annual February donation campaign or by contributing a monetary donation to allow us to purchase these products for our community.
