These Three Ad Agency Interns Want All Homeless Women to Have Free Feminine Protection

Three UK ad agency interns, Oli, Joise and Sara, who met while interning at BBH London, have launched a site called The Homeless Period. The site advocates for homeless women to have access to sanitary products.

On the site, visitors can sign a Change.org petition which aims to convince the British government to fund an allowance for homeless shelters to buy sanitary products for women. In addition, the site seeks donations and charity partners to help their cause.

The interns have given the effort a hashtag, #TheHomelessPeriod and have set up social media accounts on Twitter, Facebook  and Tumblr

So far, the petition has 6,272 supporters out of the 20,000 they seek.
