Women Health and Hygiene

Empowering Women’s Health Initiatives

The Prazna Foundation, an NGO for women’s health under the guidance of Mrs.Preeti Sharma, is understands the importance of women’s  health and hygiene. Be it menstrual health or reproductive care, we take care of each issue that is important for a girl’s health and dignity. Mentioning another feather in our cap by the name Project Kishori which has made strenuous efforts to spread awareness and help for menstrual health awareness in underprivileged communities. Feminine hygiene has been a burning issue of our society, as it has led to the troubles of many women, who do not have the right knowledge to manage it. Owing that, Prazna has been determined to minimize these everyday issues that women have to face and that has brought us to make a firm resolve to remove these women’s troubles and give them a sigh of relief. Join us for this cause to make a comfortable living for women and girls.

The Kishori Program

The Project Kishori, under the Prazna Foundation an NGO in Jaipur, has taken it to task to provide the adequate resources and knowledge that will help girls and women from underprivileged backgrounds to have improved menstrual hygiene and health. We have become the flag bearers of this noble work as it has been observed that in many underprivileged communities access to the right sanitation facilities and menstrual hygiene products is limited or non-existent.
Women’s hygiene is an important issue, neglecting it women face many troubles.
Girls miss their school during their menstruation, which affects their education. This leads to poverty and inequality. In societies, there are cultural differences and a lack of information regarding menstruation leads to poor women’s health. They are always feeling embarrassed about their problems. To manage these issues, it requires educating them and provide with proper resources that can help them manage these problems. This will lead to a healthier world for women.

Workshops for Slum Women and Girls

Project Kishori provides Workshops to raise menstruation health and hygiene awareness in slum areas, informing women and girls about how to manage their menstrual period. They are given the right education on gender equality, the importance of education, and feminine hygiene. Within these activities they get the right platform to air themselves and talk about their issues like health and gender equality.

Kit Distribution and Awareness Sessions at Schools

Project Kishori is actively distributing menstrual hygiene kits and awareness sessions at schools. Our volunteers are dedicated to resolving these issues by addressing them and making adolescent girls aware of how to deal with issues of women’s and girl’s health. This session along with other health education programs will generate a sense of awareness in girls regarding feminine hygiene and will help them to lead a dignified life.
