Rochelle Courtenay, Founder & Managing Director of Share the Dignity.  Australia’s "Pad Lady" determined to end period poverty, founded this national charity in 2015 with the mission to ensure that everyone is afforded the dignity in life that so many of us take for granted.Share the Dignity brings dignity to those who menstruate who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness, domestic violence, or poverty through the distribution of period products and #ItsintheBag donations filled with essential items. The charity is powered by volunteers, and through Rochelle’s contagious spirit over 6,000 volunteers have jumped on board to make a difference. Share the Dignity has collected and distributed over 4 million period products through multiple initiatives across Australia. As well as holding national collections, Rochelle is passionate about advocating for change and creating long-term solutions.
Here are a couple of my favorite things Rochelle shared with me...
“Knowledge equals the ability to change.”
"My strength is I ask, "What if I don’t do it?"
“No’s don’t mean no to me-they just mean ask a different way and go a different path.”
