Our campaign

We are collecting donations of new, unopened period and incontinence products such as tampons, pads, menstrual cups, leak proof/absorbency underwear & bed liners. These items are stored in our clinic as a safe, accessible place for anyone to give or take and will be distributed to those in need throughout the city.

We aim to raise awareness about menstrual equity and end the stigma associated with periods by sparking conversations at events, online and in public.
