Dignity Matters, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Wayland, Massachusetts, dedicated to providing essential female hygiene products and undergarments to women and girls in need, aiming to help them maintain their health, regain self-confidence, and live with basic dignity. The organization's slogan, "Providing free period protection, underwear and bras to women and girls in need," encapsulates its mission. Currently operational in Massachusetts and Rhode Island, the organization addresses the pervasive issue of women being unable to afford undergarments and the lack of access to feminine hygiene products, a problem exacerbated for homeless women who face monthly crises due to the unavailability of these essential items.
Founded in 2016, Dignity Matters has already made significant strides in assisting women in need, with their last grant investment received on 21 June 2023 from the Metrowest Women’s Fund. The significance of such support is underscored by the organization's long-term vision of universal access to basic sanitary products, akin to the availability of toilet paper, thereby fostering true gender equality and societal sustainability. This underscores the belief that ensuring access to essential hygiene products is imperative for all genders to thrive.
