Dear Friends,
Greetings!
I hope you all are safe, healthy and motivated during this COVID-19 pandemic.
On behalf of Indian Dreams Foundation, I would like to say a big thank you to all of you for your continued support and motivation to driving us to reach out to our goal in support for menstrual health for girls in India.
We have reached out to thousands of girls and women in the last four years and raised them to understand their bodies, health and their human rights.
With your support, we have changed the mindsets of people, especially men towards the periods. Now, in our target communities, significant populations of girls and women started using sanitary napkins and gradually the taboo tag is now excluding.
We have seen significant developments amongst school going girls belief, and their confidence level increased.
Earlier, before our intervention, the majority of girls were frightened during their periods because of lack of knowledge and apprehended this natural process as taboos, disease, and had very negative perception towards five days menstrual.
Most of the girls used to remain absent in the schools, and lock them in the shaded part of the homes.
But now, significant ration of our target beneficiaries are welcoming and sensing their periods in the most assertive approaches.
This Empowerment has marked just because of all our collective endeavours and willingness to improve the society for good.
Due to COVID-19, We all understand that this time is very crucial, and patience, motivation and hope for the future are the virtues to manifest.
I am proudly saying that in this time of crisis, our team is continually serving on the fields with having goals in mind and supporting our beneficiaries either physically or through the organisation's helpline.
We care for your motivation and commitment. We apprehend that through your valuable donations, you have conferred trust, support and motivation to us to serve in the communities for the betterment of the society and meet with the desired outcomes.
So, I am ensuring that we are committed to giving the impact of your valuable donations and your trust on Indian Dreams Foudnation.
Thank you once again for the continued support.
Be Safe and Stay at Home!
