Dear Supporter,
Being a woman means a lot of things. We like to believe that being a woman is being able to be powerful and assertive, yet kind, compassionate and vulnerable without being weak.
Whether physical, mental, or biological, it can mean something different for all woman. Biologically, for the most part, females have periods and may give birth but not always
In many countries around the world, menstruation is made to seem shameful and a burden. To dismantle the misinformation, ease of handling menstrual hygiene is incredibly empowering
And so, our purpose and goal every month is to serve as many women as possible in the regions where we work. We collect donations from our supporters and every time we reach $500USD, we wire to buy pads from our partners. They help manage manufacturing of pads who empower disenfranchised women to make biodegradable sanitary pads to sell and to disribute pads to young women who help them attend school during their time of the month.
It may seem trivia; but as a donor, I doubt you think so. In fact, it indicates that you are a kind and compassionate person. We do hope that many of you will decide to provide a monthly "give" for 2023 to enable us to to send as much as possible to serve many young women attending school with confidence.
Thank you so much for your generosity with this very humble request. .
Best Regards,
Shana
