Share the Dignity
Throughout August our biannual Dignity Drive is collecting period products and incontinence aids in the pink boxes near the entrance of our local Woolworths and Blooms the Chemist Colac.
Our Members will collect the period products and they will be distributed at the end of the month to local charities and organisations supporting our most vulnerable community members.
