Pilgrim Church’s and Lexington Neighbor Brigade’s Dignity Matters Supply Drive is in full swing and will run until March 26. Please consider contributing feminine hygiene products and underwear in recognition of International Women’s Month. The collection box is located at Pilgrim Church (55 Coolidge Ave) next to the front doors.
The greatest need at present are tampons and undergarments. Underwear must be new with the tags and packaging intact. Bras can be new or very gently used. All sanitary products must be new and individually wrapped. Dignity Matters offers free menstrual care and underwear to Massachusetts’ women and girls in need so they can live with dignity, improving their health and confidence. The nonprofit organization serves 15,000 women and girls in marginalized communities each month and is the only reliable source of hygiene items for most of the women they serve. Contact lisapboehm@gmail.com with any questions. Many thanks to all who have contributed. We are looking forward to delivering an overflow of supplies to the Dignity Matters warehouse in April!
