Today’s the day! 🙌 United Way BC’s #PeriodPromise campaign presented by Pacific Blue Cross in partnership with CUPE 1816 has officially begun!

From May 1 to 31, you can help improve access to period products for all who need them. Donate today! uwbc.ca/program/period…

May 1 is the kickoff for the annual United Way British Columbia Period Promise campaign. You can join the movement as simply as making sure menstrual products are in your washrooms like our local fave Foamers' Folly always has available.

Thanks Jennifer Palma for having us on Global BC to discuss the reality of #periodpoverty in BC, and how people can help by joining United Way British Columbia's #PeriodPromise campaign, presented by Pacific Blue Cross in partnership with CUPE 1816.

'I felt pretty lost for a bit and volunteering with seniors was a lot more fulfilling than math or tutoring. I felt I was actually making a difference in the world and that little bit of fulfillment kept me going for the year.'
