The YWCA El Paso Del Norte Region is collecting feminine hygiene products through May 28 for its Transitional Living Center.
The organization is collecting period products as part of International Menstrual Hygiene Day, May 28, to promote normalizing conversations about menstruation and change negative social views of menstruation. The negative stigma can lead to health disparities, increased shame, and reinforces gender inequities, according a YWCA news release.
The Transitional Living Center assists women and children who have survived domestic abuse and other forms of violence.
People can purchase items from the YWCA’s International Menstrual Hygiene Day Amazon Wish List.
