In India’s tea gardens, employees receive little pay, which means everyone in the family must work. Young girls drop out of school, which limits their options for better-paying jobs. The combination of long hours in the field and poverty also means they have few supplies and little time to deal with monthly menstruations. The lack of fresh, clean materials leads to infections and other problems.
Your support helps these teens and women help themselves by setting up a business for them to create low-cost sanitary products. This gives the teens and other women valuable information on how to care for their bodies and products they can use themselves. They can also sell the products for extra income.
