Distributed sanitary napkins
Distributed sanitary napkins to over 110 women and girls at Rural Development Project, YWCA of Delhi, Old Roshanpura, Najafgarh. They were also given a talk on hygiene. Poor women struggle to get a clean piece of cloth to manage their period every month. There is a lack of awareness about menstrual health and hygiene. Living in a culture of shame and silence, they end up using poor substitutes like rags and ash. This aggravates their day to day misery around this basic need. In 21st century it is high time that this suffering should be stopped.
