    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

    The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

    Story

    Just £2 a month could help a homeless woman in Southampton stay safe on her period.

    How many times have you been caught out without a sanitary pad or tampon when you needed it? I bet you went to the shop or asked a friend right?

    Well for the thousands of homeless and struggling women in Southampton that is not an option. Lack.of funds and the staggering price of sanitary care means they often have to choose between food and drinks and sanitary products.

    We will start by using the funds to help organisations like The Homeless Period and Southampton Basics Bank and go from there.

    Poor period hygiene can cause infections that could lead to infertility and even death if left untreated.

    We all know we have a ridiculous homeless problem in our beautiful city. But homelessness shouldn't be a death sentence simply because you're a woman.

    The homelessness problem in Southampton is crazy and the price of sanitary items is only rising. Women on low incomes on the streets are having to choose between food and drinks and sanitary products. Bad period hygiene can cause infections that lead to infertility and even death
