It supports the production of reusable sanitary napkins by embroiderers at a local refugee camp, making the usual, unhygienic alternatives redundant.

The project also promotes hygiene in the community through the construction of toilets and hand-washing stations.","html":"<iframe src='https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/dy\/v2\/oembed\/?format=html&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.globalgiving.org%2Fprojects%2Fbreaking-the-stigma-of-menstrual-health-in-kenya%2F' style='width:920px;height:613px;border:0;'><\/iframe>","type":"rich","title":"Addressing Health & Equality Issues in Kenya on GlobalGiving","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/www.globalgiving.org\/pfil\/53257\/pict_large.jpg","version":"1.0","height":"613"}
