SUMMARY:2022 Tampon Tuesday Product Drive
DESCRIPTION:Tampon Tuesday donation drive in Stormont\, Dundas\, and Glengarry\n\nDonations will be collected from March 7 – 22\, 2022 at the United Way/Centraide SDG office \nWe’re bringing back Tampon Tuesday to our region! Starting the week International Women’s Day\, this two-week campaign\, in partnership with Cornwall & District Labour Council\,  is an opportunity to raise awareness about period poverty. It’s important that the most vulnerable in our region have access to menstrual hygiene products as they are often the most requested from shelters and foodbanks but the least donated. \nIn 2021\, we ran our very first Tampon Tuesday product drive in this region\, achieving an impressive 300+ packages of products donated. They were distributed to five local agencies: Agape\, Naomi House\, Akwesasne Healing Centre\, Baldwin House\, and Sexual Assault Support Services Stormont\, Dundas\, Glengarry & Akwesasne. This year\, with your help\, we want to double the amount of product donated to help even more people in our communities. \nStarting March 7 and running until March 22\, 2022\, community members are encouraged to donate pads\, tampons\, liners\, cups\, and other menstrual hygiene products to help fill this gap in our region.  \n\n4 Ways to Support\nCollection Sites: Drop off menstrual hygiene products at the locations listed below. If you would like a donation box in your business\, please email stephanie@unitedwaysdg.com \n\nUnited Way/Centraide SDG at 55 Water St. West\, Suite 240\nMorrisburg Chiropractic at 85 Main St.\, Morrisburg\n\nOnline: Donate products through our Amazon Wish List or send a monetary donation for us to purchase menstrual products here \nNote: if you are prompted to manually enter a shipping address into Amazon\, please send products to: \nStephanie Lapointe\nUnited Way Centraide SDG\n55 Water St W\, Cornwall\, ON K6J 1A1\n613-932-2051 \nRun a collection drive in your workplace or with friends/family!
