White House School girls get menstrual hygiene kits
Thank you soooooooo much, Madhvi, the founder of Padmad for making it to Voi by train. Such an amazing and fun menstrual hygiene talk you gave to the boys and girls of Voi White House School. It was also having such a fun, hillarious bonding YOGA session with them. Were’nt these children just super excited after the session!!
Imagine how this long-term solution of re-usable sanitary towels, has solved the whole school’s sanitary towel challenges for the next 5 years and more. The school saves so much more money which can be diverted to other important school’s needs.
By using these re-usable sanitary towels, we are helping make a difference by:–
- Reducing menstrual cramps and infections and skin rashes since they are natural and not bleached with chemicals like the disposables.
- Saving loads of money because we can use them for the next 5 years or more.
- Supporting the local communities and companies and artisans and NOT big faceless corporations.
- Helping save the environment..!! Switching to re-usables is a striking example of how seemingly our small personal choices can tremendously and positively impact on the environment. Do you know that just North America alone, discards approx 20 billion pads each year which takes 100’s of years to decompose. And the process itself of manufacturing these disposables also pollutes our air, our waterways, and the natural habitats..!!
Thank you all who helped make a big difference and bring miles of smiles to these adolescent girls rescued from early marriages and rape.
When doing any project, let’s think long-term. Let’s think sustainability. Let’s not just do a short-term project and raise the children or people’s hopes just for that moment. Let’s lift them out of that situation and make them self sufficient and independent of donors and charities. Let’s elevate our game.
