Shoppers Drug Mart is donating 4.6 million menstrual products to advance menstrual equity in this province. This donation is valued at approximately $1.9 million, and will see menstrual products distributed throughout Newfoundland and Labrador over the next three years. Products are primarily distributed to junior high and high schools; however, will be the first jurisdiction in the country to also distribute menstrual products free of charge to post-secondary institutions, women’s centres and equity-seeking organizations, transition houses, friendship centres, emergency shelters, and food banks. The initial delivery of products is scheduled to arrive in March 2025 to Newfoundland and Labrador Health Services Supply Chain Distribution Centres in Corner Brook and St. John’s.
