In support of the Share the Dignity drive happening through the month of March all over Australia and International Women's Day we have, Share the Dignity Founder Rochelle Courtenay who works to make a real, on-the-ground difference in the lives of women and girls experiencing homelessness, fleeing domestic violence or doing it tough. We distribute sanitary items to those in need and work to end period poverty here in Australia. When a woman is doing it tough, the last thing on her mind should be dealing with her period.
Rochelle shares how Share the Dignity started,
- her upbringing,
- the change Share the Dignity was able to make in menstrual products tax
- her passions and
- what she and the team are working towards now.
This is achieved through our Dignity Drives and Dignity Vending Machines.
We also collect and distribute bags filled with essential items to those in need at Christmas time through our annual It’s in the Bag campaign.
