Starting March 9th, we are supporting a community wide collection event for She Supply, a local nonprofit committed to helping end period poverty in North Texas.
There are more than 150,000 female-led households in DFW living in poverty who struggle to afford both food and feminine protection. As a result, there are women who have to miss a week of work every month. Girls who have to miss school. Families who have to miss worship.
To help change that, She Supply collects period products and distributes them through 20 partners across the Metroplex. They have invited places of worship and local civic groups to join them in a community-wide collection event in March and we happily agreed to participate.
To support the She Supply collection event, please bring full boxes/packages of tampons and/or pads beginning Sunday, March 9th and drop them in the collection box located in the relief society room (northwest side of the building). Any brands, sizes, and quantities are welcome. We will be collecting donations through Sunday, March 30th. Thank you for your generosity and willingness to serve!
