Period Promise

Nobody should have to pick between feeding their family and being able to afford basic hygiene products.

But nearly 1 in 4 Canadian women have struggled to buy period products for themselves or their children. Period Promise is a United Way Campaign to help vulnerable people live with the dignity we all deserve.

Join us between March 7 and April 4, 2019 by taking action and helping to provide period products to those in need throughout the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.
