JOIN THE MENSTRUAL MOVEMENT
Commit to taking meaningful actions through leasing our Dignity Vending Machine (DVM) or purchasing our Dignity Dispensers. The machines dispense a specially designed Period Pack containing 6 tampons and 2 period pads, offering a choice of product and ideally enough to support anyone through a full day of menstruation.
By installing a Dignity Vending Machine or Dispenser, not only are you supporting your employees and patrons, but the funds raised through this program increase your organisations social impact by helping to fund the mission to end period poverty and the vulnerable communities that we support.
At Share the Dignity, we are passionate about empowering and supporting people to live a life of dignity and safety.
