Raise money for Dignity Matters
Dignity Matters provides menstrual care, underwear, and bras to women and girls in Massachusetts who are homeless or living in poverty.
We support 18,000 women every month through a network of 180 shelters, schools, and food pantries across the state.
You can't purchase pads or tampons with SNAP/Food Stamps or WIC!
There's NO state or federal programs that help women in Massachusetts afford menstrual care. These items are expensive and rarely donated, so thousands face a difficult choice: use unhygienic alternatives like rags and toilet paper, or stay home and miss school and work. Lack of access to menstrual care is a “deal breaker:" regardless of the other resources available to them, women and girls cannot stay healthy and thrive without reliable access to menstrual care.
Dignity Matters is the largest nonprofit provider of free menstrual care and undergarments in Massachusetts. We help 17,000 women live with dignity every month - and for most of them, we are their only reliable source of these items. We partner with 180 nonprofit organizations (including shelters, food pantries, and schools) to make menstrual care accessible where these women live.
We give women the dignity of choosing the size and style of menstrual care and undergarments they are comfortable using, and we make a commitment to each woman and each partner so they know they can count on us every month. Every item is donated to us, or purchased using your financial contributions - and we stretch your dollar to support more women by using a manufacturing contract to buy items at wholesale prices. Every $50 we receive gives a woman a year of menstrual care and underwear!
