My name is Himisha. I am 15 years old and a Grade 11 student at Jayshree Periwal Global School, Jaipur.

I am very passionate about helping others, especially those who are less privileged than I am.
For girls and women from poor homes, sanitary pads which are considered the norm for us is a luxury. To manage their menstrual needs, they unfortunately are forced to resort to practices that are unhygienic and lead to health issues. The solution is to give them a menstrual hygiene kit that is cost-effective, lasts long, and is not too bulky. .
The Hygiene kit that is being used is unique as it is reusable. It has 5 pads - 3 for medium flow and 2 for heavy flow. It lasts for 18 months and dramatically reduces the amount of waste created (as otherwise pads are dumped every month). As they last for so long, they are also cost-effective. Disposable/Normal sanitary pads have to be bought repeatedly which costs INR 50-100 per month, and are very damaging to the environment as they create huge waste.
The cost of this hygiene kit (including distribution, training the women/girls, etc) is just INR 500 per pack of 5. A small contribution can make a big difference. Fund INR 3500 and transform the lives of 7 girls/women.

I request all of you to support my campaign. Let's help our people and be a part of a bigger cause.
