Access to Necessities, Period
Community Partner Drop-Off Point – February 2025
We are proud to be a Community Partner for the Access to Necessities, Period initiative this February!
Menstrual products are not a luxury—they are a necessity. Yet, 1 in 4 Canadian women face the impossible choice between buying food or purchasing period products. No one should have to resort to using towels, tissues, or socks to manage their period.
That’s why we’re proud to be a community partner in Mikela Correia's, founder of Access to Necessities, Period, annual drive to help end period poverty in our community. Each year, she and her team collect and distribute menstrual hygiene products to local organizations that support those in need.
Since the campaign's inception in 2021, they have collected and donated over 53,000 menstrual products to local organizations who support vulnerable populations, —and they’re determined to keep the momentum going!
How You Can Help
