Period products are one of life’s essentials. Yet many individuals must choose food or rent over menstrual products. In Canada alone, one in four women who menstruate have been faced with this difficult choice, according to a 2023 survey by Plan International Canada. HAGO’s Period Product Support Program (PPSP) provides at-risk individuals with personalized period product kits that they need, supporting equitable access as a human right.
The PPSP delivers a three-month supply of period products, with each kit tailored to an individual’s needs, including menstrual health conditions. The program is the only one of its kind in Canada. The program has impacted thousands of individuals, organizations and their communities, with year-round support delivered directly to their door or supporting centre, advancing menstrual equity while offering dignity, convenience and front-line support to recipients. Volunteers and corporate groups organize donations and pack kits with menstrual products and other essential items, including hygiene and personal care items.
To date, the PPSP has helped 2,000+ individuals in need, delivering more than 1,000,000 period and hygiene products in 350 cities across Canada. The PPSP supports diverse races, cultures, religions and income levels. Of our applicants, 66% are unemployed, and 95% who are employed full-time live on less than $50,000 annually. The PPSP has recently expanded its geographical reach to underserved remote communities in Northern Ontario, including Indigenous communities where a box of period products can cost more than $20.
The PPSP is made possible through fundraising, donations, and support from our strong community partnerships. The voices of the recipients guide the work as we expand our reach and impact in the future.
