Love to hear more people talking about using #menstrualcups to help with #PeriodPoverty

Have you picked up issue 7 yet? Among our stories is @elizfoster_'s piece on the menstrual cup. “Although it sounds kind of gross, you get to feel like it’s not gross anymore and it becomes normal," says student Hope Moon. dalgazette.com/arts-culture/…
No strings attached

No strings attached

Menstrual cups are gaining more popularity as a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly alternative to pads and tampons.

The student government at Halifax West High School held a Mental Health and Wellness Day for their fellow students today. The dynamic duo, our founder Suzanne Lively and Erin Casey from Dignity Period, were happy to attend and talk to #youth about #PeriodPoverty in #NovaScotia.

It was said today by many who attended the #PPSummit2019 that they are not happy with @NSLiberal for not funding the schools to properly address universal access. #NSPoli #PeriodPovertyNS #Halifax #NovaScotia @StephenMcNeil @bmaguirens

If individuals would like to send an email to the Clerks Office ([email protected]) to support the City providing free menstrual products in public washrooms that would be great! 😄 #NSPoli #NovaScotia #Halifax #PeriodPoverty

The #PeriodPovertySummit Committee has been busy this weekend! We're getting ready for the big day on Tuesday. Check out all the amazing panelists & moderators. We even have a cartoonist for our storytelling station! periodpovertysummit.com/pane… #PPSummit2019
DID YOU KNOW? For less than the cost of a week’s worth of Starbucks you could give a person 2-5 years of freedom from period poverty. Through Friendly Divas your $20 buys a diva cup for 1 menstruating person in Nova Scotia. #PeriodPovertyNS

YES, LET'S CHANGE THAT!

Did you know the US is one of the biggest consumers of tampons in the world? And most of the tampons sold have non-biodegradable plastic applicators? We want to change that. The DivaCup is a better way to period, for you and your world. 🗽 #innerrevolution
