Sudan is currently facing one of the world's largest humanitarian crises, as described by the International Rescue Committee (IRC). The ongoing conflict, now surpassing 600 days, has led to mass displacement, widespread hunger, loss of lives, and the collapse of critical infrastructure. These challenges affect 5.8 million people, with women and girls among the most vulnerable.
Threats of violence, destruction, and supply chain disruptions have caused both a scarcity of supplies and an increase in the cost of period products. Without these products, menstruators are forced to rely on unsafe materials, leading to infections and other health risks. Inflation has made purchasing these products impossible for many families, who often have to choose between period products and food.
We need your support to help alleviate these barriers faced by Sudanese people during the war. Your contribution will go directly towards purchasing, shipping, and distributing period products to menstruators in need. Here's how your support helps: Provide Sudanese refugees and IDPs with sustainable menstrual products. Enable Sudanese refugees and IDPs to purchase menstrual products locally when shipping is not feasible.
The Fihri Foundation's Sudan project provides sustainable period kits to women and girls, fostering dignity, health, and empowerment. By addressing menstrual needs, we reduce health risks, support education, and empower women to rebuild their lives. Reusable kits offer a sustainable solution, ensuring long-term impact by reducing dependency on aid and improving the well-being of entire communities in the face of ongoing humanitarian challenges.
