United Way’s Period Promise initiative is tackling period poverty by providing free period products in schools across the region, which includes collecting and distributing period products to their agency partners, working with corporate partners and empowering organizations to erase period poverty in their own workplaces.
Alberta Blue Cross® is proud to be a founding sponsor of the program and has signed the pledge to provide free menstrual products in all washrooms in our offices. Together, we can unite our community and improve access to basic needs like period products.
