My Project
Providing pads for girls is crucial for their overall well-being, comfort, and empowerment. Menstruation is a natural part of life for many girls, and access to menstrual hygiene products is essential for ensuring they can fully participate in class without discomfort or embarrassment.
Access to pads and tampons ensures that girls can manage their periods comfortably and confidently.
Without the worry of leaks or discomfort, they can focus on their lessons and learning goals, leading to improved performance and engagement.
Providing pads empowers girls to take control of their menstrual health and well-being. It also opens up opportunities for educational discussions about menstruation, breaking down stigma, and fostering a supportive learning environment.
