We are thrilled to share the continued progress of our Menstrual Health Management initiative in the Kathmandu valley and beyond, led by our dedicated Sarathis. Your unwavering support has been instrumental in empowering our Sarathis to conduct impactful workshops in schools, challenging menstrual health taboos.
The workshops, fueled by dedication and enthusiasm, continue to cover essential topics, ranging from the physiology of menstruation to social issues and the role of men in this natural process. Our Sarathis persist in debunking myths, nurturing informed and supportive environments for adolescents.
In recent months, our Batch VI Sarathis have been almost at the end of their tenure. Their commitment and hard work have led to the completion of 28 school-based workshops, both within and outside the Kathmandu valley, amplifying the impact of their predecessors. They have reached over 600 adolescents, spreading awareness and empowerment. Notably, they have also extended their reach to students with disabilities and marginalized populations through orphanages and children development centers.
As we stand on the verge of selecting a fresh new batch of Sarathis, we are proud to reflect on the incredible journey of Batch VI. Their dedication and passion have been the driving force behind our success. Without their support, none of this would have been possible.
We are also pleased to announce that the entire body of work of our Sarathis is available to view on our website and social media platforms. They have been actively writing blogs around Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR), sharing their insights and experiences.
Your unwavering support as donors, supporters, and volunteers continues to be the cornerstone of our success. We extend heartfelt gratitude to each one of you for being integral to this journey. Your generosity and dedication empower us to transform the lives of young individuals, nurturing a community that embraces knowledge, equality, and empowerment. Thank you for your steadfast commitment to our cause.
