Period without Shame
The cost for one pack of sanitary-pads is $0.75. This is the equivalent for rice, sufficient to feed one family for a day. Millions of the poorest girls and women in Nepal can simply not afford to buy them. In our villages, women and girls are using old rags, which is causing disease. Besides this during their monthly cycles women are considered impure and it is for these reasons that many girls are forgoing school during their period. We'd like to provide pads for 500 adolescents for 5 years.
