#underprivileged

My friends and I have begun an initiative to help bring menstrual equality to women locally and globally.

Our mission revolves around providing easy access to menstrual products in school bathrooms in our area, as well as extending our work to provide menstrual hygiene products to underprivileged girls and women in other countries, starting with Bangladesh.

Any donation, or even sharing the word around, means the world to us. You can learn more about us on our website!

We just started it, and are having our first in-person fundraiser on the 4th!

We have big dreams for this project and want it to have a real impact on the lives of women. Our success depends largely on the kindness of lovely strangers like you all. Every dollar donated will go into buying period products for girls where they do not have access to them, and we all know how expensive these products can be.

For many underprivileged girls, they must resort to using a piece of cloth for their periods. Rewash and reuse every month. Ultimately our goal is to help such girls have a comfortable period experience with actual menstrual products.

From providing financial assistance to the Hindi film industry’s 25,000 daily-wage workers, to giving ration kits to the underprivileged — Salman Khan helped many during the two lockdowns. Now, the actor has turned his attention to the educational needs of underprivileged children in rural areas. He has begun the initiative in the interiors of Palghar, Aurangabad and Parbhani districts as his not-for-profit organisation, Being Human, has an established network in the region.

Rahul N Kanal, Yuva Sena leader, who is coordinating the endeavour with the actor, reveals that the organisation has sent stationery, sanitisers and masks for students. “We have reached out to many schools in rural and tribal areas of those districts.

Our on-ground volunteers check with the schools about their requirements, which are then supplied by Salman’s NGO. Salman bhai’s family has been involved,” he says. After the pandemic, the superstar has apparently decided to put more emphasis on education and children’s health. Kanal adds, “These are the two aspects that he is closely working on. Now that the [educational aid] is underway, he intends to focus on nourishment. He has also asked me about the possibility of distributing protein bars to school kids.”

I thought this fundraiser on the Generosity Network looked like something you might be interested in:
