"Women and young girls who menstruate are ostracized from basic activities, like eating certain foods, or socializing, all over the world. The cultural shame attached to menstruation and a shortage of resources stop women from going to school and working every day. Period poverty is the lack of access to sanitary products, menstrual hygiene education, toilets, hand washing facilities, and, or, waste management."
JOIN THE FIGHT.
This Women's History Month, ITAVFoundation and I will continue to raise awareness and help those in need. For women in shelters, daily hygiene tasks can be challenging. Even though light essentials are provided in homeless centers and shelters, items such as tampons and pads are harder to come by.
HELP A WOMAN IN NEED
We'll be collecting feminine hygiene products throughout the month of March. Due to COVID-19, Items can be mail, scheduled for contactless pick up or drop off.
