“On the tenth day of giving, my law firm gave to me, support for menstrual health and wellness for all.”
For our tenth day of giving, we will be donating to Femcare in Hamilton, Ontario.
FemCare started out as a grassroots community project in 2015 to ensure homeless people who menstruate have access to essential items to support menstrual hygiene maintenance. After initiating a city-wide discussion on gender-equality in the City of Hamilton and the founder, Halima Al-Hatimy, realizing there was a need for policy development and research in the area of menstrual health and wellness, FemCare was created.
