Dear Donors,
When your vision is to reach the summit keep looking only at where the next step is going to be. Looking up to the top will only make you dizzy. After having taken a thousand baby steps we are closer to the summit by one more today.
Yesterday Mukti, our tiny facility in Kolkata in one of the most brutal red light districts, welcomed an amazing team of scientists from the Indian Jute Industries' Research Association. The Director and Deputy Director was impressed with our factory and has decided to work with Mukti to champion another sustainable eco-friendly and completely bio degradable material to make sanitary pads.
The women of the Mukti Sanitary Pads are ready and excited to scale the summit. Our project just got more meaning and is taking a step forward to serve more women and girls with sanitary pads and employ more women with dignity and freedom. The sky is the limit for these ambition women.
We ask that you continue to support Mukti by purchasing sanitary pads from the women for the most vulnerable who cannot even pay the small amount. Our ask is that you do a monthly $12 subscription or more, that will help the most vulnerable.
Thank your for your kindness and generosity,
Shana
