For Her Dignity is a registered Canadian non-profit that partners with community-based organizations to build period poverty programming — educating, empowering, and elevating with the resources to fight period poverty.

WHO WE ARE

Building a Network of Dignity

We believe in a future where all women and girls, regardless of their social or economic background, can have access to sustainable menstrual health management and live with dignity, hope, and opportunity.

To achieve this, we partner with international affiliates who work with community leaders to provide culturally appropriate resources like education materials and dignity kits to vulnerable women and girls in culturally conservative countries. We support training and expanding the network of resident leaders with how to manage a community’s menstrual health needs.

Our Mission

FHD partners with international vetted affiliates who deploy a network of community leaders to distribute culturally appropriate and easily replicable resources, including education materials and dignity kits, to vulnerable women and girls in culturally conservative countries.

Our Vision

We see a future where period poverty is eradicated and socially and economically vulnerable women and girls have dignity, hope and opportunity through sustainable menstrual health management.

OUR IMPACT

A Story of Innovation

In 2020, COVID-19 presented unprecedented challenges to the global supply chain affecting For Her Dignity’s ability to get necessary menstrual supplies to implementation partners. To address this challenge, For Her Dignity simplified and innovated on its design by introducing pre-cut Dignity Kits that could be assembled by implementation partners in the field

Previously, a completed Dignity Kit included pre-sewn liners, leak resistant shields and sometimes underwear. The new pre-cut Dignity Kits exchanged sewn liners for pre-cut liners.
