Share the Dignity's March Drive 2025

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—I want to recognise that this Month marks Share the Dignity's March Drive. Each year, my office proudly serves as a collection point for the campaign, and I am always moved by the support for this important cause. Throughout March, collection points across the country will be accepting donations of brand-new pads, tampons, period underwear, menstrual cups, and incontinence aids. These donations will go directly to those who need them most, helping to restore dignity and ease financial stress for vulnerable girls and women. Over the March and August drives, Share the Dignity have set a goal to collect 500,000 period products to help end period poverty. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the local businesses that have stepped up to serve as collection points in my community, including Physio Inq in McMahons Point, and Woolworths Neutral Bay and Crows Nest. Thank you for supporting such an important cause. I acknowledge the amazing team at Share the Dignity and thank them for all the hard work and dedication they have poured into this cause. Finally, I thank everyone in my community and across Australia who has donated, every product makes a difference.
