Woolworths team members and Share the Dignity.
Share the Dignity is launching its 20th August Dignity Drive this week to help deliver period products to those in need across Canowindra.
People who would like to support those in need can donate period products to Share the Dignity’s Dignity Drive this August.
Supporters can donate unopened period products and incontinence aids at a number of participating businesses, including all Woolworths supermarkets in the area.
The August Dignity Drive was launched last week as Share the Dignity reveals the results of its latest Bloody Big Survey, which found that 72.97% of respondents in Canowindra have admitted they find it difficult to purchase period products due to financial stress.
Woolworths Store Manager John Milazzo, “We’re proud to continue our partnership with Share the Dignity and support another Dignity Drive this month.”
Woolworths is on track to mark a major milestone with Share the Dignity this month during the bi-annual Dignity Drive. The latest Drive will see the one millionth product donation to the organisation from Woolworths team members and customers.
“It’s always great to see so many of our Canowindra shoppers get involved with generous donations to help support those in need. We might even turn out to be the store that hits the one millionth donation, so thank you to everyone who gets involved,” said John Milazzo.
Individuals can donate pads, tampons, menstrual cups and discs, period undies, reusable pads and incontinence aids during the month of August for Share the Dignity’s Dignity Drive. Donations are distributed locally to charity partners in the communities where they are donated. To learn more, visit: www.sharethedignity.org.au/dignity-drives
