Why Reusable Pads?

Durable

Reusable pads can be used for a period of between 6 months to 2 years

Affordable

Normal sanitary pads are very expensive, thus this is the best option for girls in remote areas.

Eco-Friendly

They help the environment by reducing the amount of plastic waste produced by ordinary sanitary pads.

Skill

We're not simply giving the girls pads; we're also giving them skills to help them manage their periods..
