S 2868 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Establishes the "New Jersey Feminine Hygiene Product Donations Immunity Act."

The New Jersey Feminine Hygiene Product Donations Immunity Act protects donors and charitable organizations from legal liability when donating feminine hygiene products (like tampons, pads, and menstrual cups) that meet basic safety standards. It applies to donations made in good faith to shelters and nonprofits serving women facing homelessness, poverty, or other hardships. The law shields donors and distributors from lawsuits or criminal charges unless harm resulted from gross negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct. This creates a clear legal framework to encourage more donations without fear of unwarranted liability.
