Project - FREE PERIOD'S TO GIRLS & WOMEN
SpecificationsOnly 58% of India’s 355 million menstruating women use sanitary napkins. Over 88% of women resort to shocking alternatives like unsanitized cloth, ashes and husk sand. Incidents of Reproductive Tract infection is 70% more common among these women. According to a study by Times of India 70% of women cannot afford to buy sanitary napkins in India.

The Challenges of being a woman
1. Lack of Closed Spaces
2. Use of Cloth/Paper/Unhygine material over sanitary napkins
3. Lack of knowledge
4. Social Taboos
5. The Silent Treatment
A Noble CauseTo solve this problem, we have started an initiative “Free Days Happy Days” whereby focusing adolescent girls and women , they shall be given a pack of 7 pads every month. There are many problems in girls and women  in their starting stages of the menstrual cycle and to provide them education on the same, we have created 5 session program for giving them an understanding of menstrual cycle, using pads and benefits. This movement will make every girl and women participant an important and self-reliant stakeholder.
The challenge is to tackle the age-old taboo - Menstrual cycle - by creating awareness, access to a clean menstrual cycle and thus boosting the confidence of adolescent girls and women .
Facts and Figures
