Hello everyone

                         I am P. Raga chandrika a volunteer of Hamari pahchan NGO, and currently working with them on their "sukhad project". This sukhad project is an initiative of Hamari Pahchan NGO for under priviliged women to help them spend their periods comfortably with proper means and knowledge. Providing them with sanitary pads, educating them on good menstrual hygiene practices and raising awarness on the fact that 'periods' and talking about the same is not a taboo but a natural process. During the lockdown people are unemployed and don't have enough resources to eat. In such pandemic time none of those underprivileged women could  even think about their Menstrual Hygiene. While other organizations are taking care of food and medicines of people, Hamari Pahchan NGO have came forward to take care of womens menstrual hygiene and will continue to distribute sanitary pads to them. We are also conducting distribution drives every week 'sukhad' kit' is distributed which includes pads , soap, paper for disposal, and other essential items.

After conducting a survey in the slums, it was discovered that there are women who are suffering from various problems due to non-maintenance of their menstrual health.
