Share the Dignity: donate this month

This month, the Share the Dignity campaign returns to Woolworths.

Local shoppers are being urged to support the campaign, which has been working to end period poverty in Australia for a decade.

The rising costs of living continue to remain challenging for everyday Australians as they struggle to make ends meet.

Share the Dignity founder and managing director, Rochelle Courtney said despite all the incredible support the charity receives, the cost-of-living crisis in Australia continues to impact those experiencing period poverty. 

"The cost-of-living crisis has placed immense pressure on vulnerable Australians, and we must rally together to ensure no one has to face period poverty alone. 

"No woman, girl or person who menstruates should have to experience the indignity of having to substitute period products". 

Share the Dignity is collecting period products and incontinence aids this March, which can be donated in the pink collection boxes at all Woolworths Supermarkets Australia-wide.

Woolworths will also donate five cents from the sale of every period product purchased throughout March, adding to the $3,157,033 already donated since the partnership started in 2019.

All period products and incontinence aids collected through the Dignity Drive will be distributed to Share the Dignity's 3000+ charity partners, including community groups, domestic violence refuges, homeless shelters and other organisations supporting our most vulnerable community members.
