Period poverty is much more common in our community than you would think. Half of all people who menstruate say that they have struggled to purchase product for themselves at some time in their life, and more than a quarter have gone through a period without having any products to support them. 

United Way’s Period Promise campaign, presented by Pacific Blue Cross, is committed to changing that and making it easier for everyone to help out. You can organize a Period Promise campaign to collect donations in your community – in your school, in your workplace or union, or even a socially-distanced drop off with your neighbours.
