Do you know?Globally, over 12 billion disposable menstrual products are used per year, filling up latrine or ending up in landfills. Disposable menstrual products also create approximately 6.3% of sewage-related debris along rivers and beaches. #undp#TEF 2019#SDGs#globalgoals

Period poverty is an overwhelming concept in sub-Saharan Africa. They either don’t have access to menstrual products and WASH (water, sanitation and good hygiene) facilities, or in the rare scenarios where they do, they don’t have any way of disposing menstrual waste.#UNDP

2019 World Menstral Hygiene day Management, we carry out programmes that empower young girls through distribution of reusable sanitary pads and Girl Child education. But what's also dear to our hearts is giving back to the community. Our target is people in rural communities.

Menstruation is a natural process. However, in most parts of the world, it remains a taboo and is not really talked about. This can inflict indignity upon millions of girls and women. Through the power of education and advocacy, we aim to break the social restrictions.

If girls are are troubled or distracted every month by issues like not being able to afford sanitary towels, they wont be able to perform better. This motivated us to create Virtous Reusaable Sanitary pads.
