Our Story of Period Poverty

Period poverty goes beyond the lack of menstrual products; it’s about the stark reality many women and girls face every month. When forced to choose between buying sanitary pads or food, many opt for food, leaving their menstrual health needs unmet. This situation has far-reaching consequences on a girl’s school attendance, test scores, and overall education, potentially cutting short her dreams and future prospects.

We are on a mission to change this harmful trend. Our PADs DRIVE Initiative aims to provide 3,000 sanitary pads to 1,000 girls, ensuring they can attend school confidently for at least three months. Along with menstrual products, we provide Menstrual Health Impact training to break down taboos and create a world where all menstruators can stay in school and pursue their dreams without menstruation getting in their way.
