Empowering Girls Through Menstrual Health Education in Gowandi West, Mumbai

On 4th October 2024, Pinkishe Foundation, in collaboration with the Rotaract Club of Mulund Hills, conducted a Menstrual Health & Hygiene Education Camp at Alfa English School, Gowandi West, Mumbai. The event focused on equipping young girls with the knowledge and resources they need to maintain menstrual hygiene and break the taboos associated with menstruation.

Comprehensive Education on Menstrual Health

During the session, the girls were educated about the importance of maintaining proper hygiene during their periods, understanding their menstrual cycle, and overcoming common myths and misconceptions about menstruation. Led by experts from the Rotaract Club of Mulund Hills, the interactive session fostered an open environment where girls felt comfortable asking questions and discussing their concerns.

Free Sanitary Pad Distribution to Ensure Access

Following the educational segment, the event included a free sanitary pad distribution drive. This initiative addressed the critical issue of accessibility to menstrual hygiene products, ensuring that every girl present had access to essential resources to manage her periods hygienically and comfortably.

Breaking Taboos and Building Confidence

This camp was not only about education but also about empowering girls to embrace their menstrual health with confidence. By facilitating open conversations and providing accurate information, the event aimed to break the cultural stigmas surrounding menstruation, helping the girls understand that menstruation is a natural part of life.

The Rotaract Club of Mulund Hills, with the support of the Pinkishe Foundation, remains committed to promoting menstrual health and providing access to necessary hygiene products, ensuring that every girl can approach her period with knowledge and dignity.
