Period products are often the most requested item at local food banks, but the least donated.

Tampon Tuesday brings awareness to issues like period poverty and menstrual equity by supporting people who can’t afford period products.

Kitchener-based company, Diva International Inc., which makes menstrual cups, partnered with Tampon Tuesday, to help collect period product donations, as well as donated menstrual cups as part of their fiscal goal to donate 15,000 DivaCups each year.
