Period Priority Project

(1/3) Who we are and What we do🩸 Currently Ottawa-based but working to advance period product access across Newfoundland and Labrador🫶🏼

Your support helped us distribute over 30,000 period products since 2022!🤍 This holiday season consider donating to small groups like us to help us make a difference in our community🤍 E-transfers : tooryleisha@yahoo.com

To more free period products for all in 2025🤍 @period_priority

@period_priority Authors can submit by emailing submissions@engenbooks.com as a .doc or .docx file. Email should include author’s name & contact info, the author’s connection to NL & the story’s title and a word count for the story. Submissions will be accepted until September 30th, 2024!

@period_priority @period_priority are particularly interested in hearing from those whose experiences are often marginalized in discussions of menstruation, including folks who are: trans, non-binary and gender diverse, persons with disabilities, immigrant and newcomers, and more. 🧵

Check out this opportunity from @period_priority! Period Priority Project is inviting submissions from folks of all backgrounds, genders and identities - with connections to Newfoundland and Labrador - to share experiences, reflections & expressions related to menstruation. 🧵

From witnessing period-related discrimination to founding the @period_priority, @LeishaToory’s story is one of profound impact. Growing up where menstrual health was taboo, her journey became a quest to dismantle the barriers preventing voices like hers from being heard.

Being featured alongside Canada’s most influential and inspiring women—TV hosts, journalists, entrepreneurs, business and cultural leaders, ambassadors, Olympians, authors, and politicians—is an incredible honor (1/2) thehonesttalk.ca/honest-thought…

I am excited to announce a new initiative from the Period Priority Project. This initiative takes an intersectional approach to periods, focusing on the unique challenges faced by individuals with disabilities. #nl #nlpoli #periods #periodprioritproject

Hi all! We haven’t been able to purchase any period products since and we would appreciate any monetary support to help advance our project🫶🏼Thanking you all in advance- please share with your network❤️ We are only able to distribute period products through your support❤️

I am looking for women in the nonprofit sector who can spend 5-10 minutes reviewing our survey at the Women's Nonprofit Network: qualtricsxmpq7d324yw.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2t… Completing the survey will help build a more inclusive, supportive, and effective nonprofit community in Canada.
