The Period Promise Northumberland campaign, in partnership with Northumberland United Way, begins May 13th
From May 13 to June 3, you can donate menstrual hygiene products, make a financial donation, or organize your own Period Promise collection campaign.
Donations help individuals, families, and non-profit organizations who struggle to afford these products each month.
And if you’re a business owner, consider making these products available for free in your restrooms for customers.
This year, more than 12,000 products were supplied to individuals, families, and non-profits locally, making an incredible difference in the lives of people who do not have access to the products they need.
Donations can be dropped off at the following partner locations: Nurturing Health Naturopathic Clinic, Nourish Boutique Spa, Cobourg Public Library, David’s No Frills, Salvation Army in Port Hope, RE/MAX Quinte Ltd. In Brighton, YMCA Northumberland, or Northumberland United Way.
