Periods are natural. Access to menstrual products, education, and dignity should be too. This Menstrual Hygiene Day, let’s break the silence, end the stigma, and push for period equity for all. 🩸💪 #MHDay2025 #PeriodEquity #breakingcyclesug2025

“I no longer have to miss school during my period.” 🩸💜 🫶🤗 A young girl beamed with joy after receiving Esteem Pads during our #MHDay2025 outreach. Her joy is a reminder that menstrual products empower, restore dignity, and open doors to education. #PeriodFriendlyWorld

As we come to the end of the beautiful mother's month, allow us share one of our best moments. Teaching a girl how to make a re-usable sanitary towel is always fulfilling. As we commemorate World #mensturationday 28thMay, we say #endperiodstigma #mesturalhealthmatters priceless😊

I actually thought those guys find the systems in Uganda perfect and don’t need fundraisers to get access to good healthcare Anyway it turns out we are all in the same sinking boat .

From rugs to pads. Together we can solve period poverty. Together we can #endperiodstigma . It's natural for a girl to mensturate, it can't be used against their confidence & self-esteem. They need support not shame. Emotional, physical and financial 😅. "For a girl, do not stop"

In the 4th frame a p.2 girl asks God for her parents to stop fighting. Did you know that fighting affects your child's mental health and performance? 🤔. These matters are more serious than we don't expect. It's sad that we are raising a wounded generation. #MentalHealthMatters
