Picket lines are tough and require essentials including menstrual products. The CUPE Alberta Women’s Committee is launching “Go With the Picket Line Flow”, a menstrual product drive to ensure striking workers have access to these necessities while they march for fair wages and better working conditions.
How It Works:
We are calling on CUPE locals, members, and allies to donate menstrual products: pads, tampons, liners, and menstrual cups to support members on the picket lines. Donations of diapers or pull-ups are also being collected. Donations can be dropped off at CUPE National Area Offices during normal operating hours, and we’ll ensure they get into the hands of those who need them most.
Why It Matters:
Access to menstrual products should never be a barrier to participation on the picket line. This initiative is a simple but powerful way to show solidarity, support workers, and help keep picketers comfortable and focused on the fight.
Join us in making sure no one has to choose between standing up for their rights and having access to essential care. Drop off your donations today because the fight for fairness should always flow forward!
