Pinky Bank sanitary napkin distribution day was held on January 18th 2024 at Nishkam Vidya Mandir in Ludhiana, Punjab. In biting cold weather, pads were distributed to 100 school going girls with the help of local women leaders.
With every distribution, we manage to move the needle further on acceptance of a socially taboo issue. Menstrual hygiene remains a key focus area for UNICEF globally – “Menstrual health and hygiene interventions can help overcome these obstacles. Not only do they fulfil the unmet demand for menstrual hygiene products; they also protect dignity, build confidence, and strengthen sexual and reproductive health, particularly among adolescents.”
