Menstrual Hygiene Awareness Session with Kishori Club Members

We held a menstrual hygiene workshop at Aashiyana Umang Society, near Bagru, for women working as gardeners and sweepers. Our Founder & Chairperson, Preeti Sharma, led the session, breaking taboos and stressing the importance of hygiene during menstruation. We were joined by Reshu Goyal (CA & founder of Dfine), who promotes menstrual and mental health awareness.

She also generously distributed sanitary pads to the women during the session, and our Project Manager, Prachi Khandelwal, encouraged women to be confident and open about periods.

Dr. Neetu Gupta from Manipal University came along with Kishori Club members. Neha Ravani spoke on educating boys about periods, while Dhruvi Bahtey led a yoga session helpful during menstruation. We ended by distributing hygiene kits, a small but meaningful step forward.
