Dear Friend Namaste!!
Hope Everything is Safe & Healthy...
Menstruation is a part of the life of girls and women. Women and girls need to take special care of safety and hygiene during menstruation but even today it is seen that women and girls in rural and urban slum areas are not aware of menstrual health. Women are using non-traditional means such as old cloth, cotton, newspaper during menstruation. These women do not understand the importance of sanitary napkins. In the Corona era, the sanitary napkin was out of reach of women and this resulted in making the situation worse.
The program for menstrual health awareness and sanitary pads distribution was organized by the RSKS Organization during COVID-19. RSKS workers gave girls and women information about menstrual health through flip charts, posters, etc, as well as the utility of sanitary napkins by following the social distancing under the workshop organized there by selecting six inaccessible locations. Also explained through awareness videos, women got information about easy menstrual health. Under the workshop, the women openly inquired about their questions and at last 1000 sanitary napkins were distributed to all the girls and women who attended the workshop.
Free sanitary napkins were distributed to all women at the end of the program. A total of 1000 sanitary napkins were distributed by the RSKS Team members to around 500 women and young girls during COVID-19. At the end of the program, the message was given to women and young girls to use sanitary napkins. All the women and girls praised the program. Information of the program were also given to the authorities of villages, they also appreciated this program of RSKS and proposed to conduct such awareness programs from time to time. All the women thanked RSKS India for this wonderful support. Through this program, women became aware and also understood the usefulness of sanitary napkins.
Many thanks again for your support!!
Many Regards
