  7. Earthwise Girls 40% Closing Down Sale 😢

    [Read on Ethical Revolution]

    Having spent many years fighting period poverty and raising awareness through the business, the amazing Earthwise Girls is sadly closing its doors and offering 40% off all remaining stock.

    Some of the achievements of Earthwise Girls:

    • Donated thousands of reusable period pads to The Nasio Trust to fight period poverty in rural Kenya (over 12,000 pads in the last 5 years alone!)
    • Supported UK charities, period poverty groups, schools, colleges and universities with low price or free sustainable period products.
    • Took reusable period products to local farmers markets, eco markets and even to Wallingford Carnival.
    • Went 100% plastic free from July 2017, receiving the Plastic Free Business Champion Gold Award from Surfers Against Sewage in recognition of their efforts to run Earthwise Girls as a plastic free, sustainable business.
    • Successfully ran a successful small, family-business with as small an ecological footprint as possible for many years.

    A massive congratulations to Christine, Nora and Earthwise Girls for everything they’ve done. Wishing you the best in your next chapters.

  10. #PeriodPoverty undermines the education of #girls and young #women bit.ly/3YZGOY9
    Girls and young women around the world are missing school days, because they lack the resources to adequately manage their #MenstrualHealth and hygiene.
    Period poverty also has dangerous & immediate health consequences for girls & young women, pushing them into early and #ForcedMarriages, #SexualAbuse, or female genital mutilation #FGM – because their period is seen as their “coming of age.”

  11. From our #BIPOC #sisterhood #nonprofit org, #SNIWWOC in #VictoriaBC - Please boost.

    Our newest program is here to give BIPOC #menstruators the freedom to be a part of essential activities and not be excluded due to a lack of #MenstrualProducts.

    Did you know that up to 70% of menstruators have missed school or work because of their period?

    Or that nearly a quarter of Canadian menstruators and a third of menstruators under 25, have reportedly struggled to afford menstrual products for themselves or their dependents?

    As an all-women, BIPOC-led and BIPOC-comprised organization, SNIWWOC understands the needs of our community and we are focused on improving their health from a holistic and integrated service model.

    With efforts to be #EcoConscious, this program will provide applicants with one #reusable #MenstrualCup to support their period needs.

    The #MenstrualFreedom program is funded by The Sovereign Order of St. John of Jerusalem, we thank you for your donation!

    Eligibility:

    Black Women, Indigenous Women, and Women of Colour, Transgender, Non-binary, and Two-Spirit community menstruators.

    Must make less than the low-income cut-off line, see the table(on website).

    A resident of Greater Victoria, BC, Canada.
