Get Involved

Too many people are missing opportunities because they don’t have access to period products.

Too many people are embarrassed to ask for help, facing additional challenges with cultural differences, gender identity or the stigma associated with having a period.

Together – we can make a difference.

 

There are many ways to support

This is our Period Promise

 

We recognize that this issue isn’t going away by donating period products each year. We want to encourage elected representatives, executives, union leaders, community groups and business owners to sign on to the United Way Period Promise Policy, committing to providing free period products to anyone accessing their facilities.

However you choose to participate, you can reduce vulnerability and isolation caused by period poverty. Together, we can help people live with the dignity we all deserve, creating healthier, more caring and inclusive communities.

This is local love in action.
