What if you could help lift a family out of poverty and make the world a fairer place, simply by buying something that half of us already need every month?
Would you help?
Now, you can - with Sanitary Pads being a direct route to keeping girls in school.
850,000 Kenyan girls miss a combined total of 3.5 million days of school each month. By age 18, 65% of young women have dropped out of school.
The effect?
These girls are more likely to become adolescent mothers…, are more at risk of contracting HIV and have fewer opportunities than their male peers.
We don’t believe that getting your period should keep any woman from reaching her fullest potential.
That’s why we’ve created her/, a new kind of tampon company. Each month, you’ll receive 100% organic cotton tampons delivered straight to your door and a young girl in a developing country will receive a donation of sanitary pads, so that she can stay in school and achieve her dreams.
But we need your help to make her/ a reality. Pre-order your 100% organic cotton her/ tampons today. Help end to the cycle of poverty and be a part of a movement to empower young women around the world, as adolescence shouldn’t be the end of anyone’s education.
All pre-orders will receive a packet of (x16) her/ tampons delivered directly to your door, along with other limited edition gifts.
Long term impact of staying in school:
Lowers birth rates. A secondary education enhances women's abilities to plan pregnancies and gives the greater means to choose when to have children. This results in a reduction from 5.3 to 3.9 children per women.
Lowers infant mortality. An extra year of girls' education reduces infant mortality by 5%-10%.
Lowers risk of contracting HIV. A girl in high school is 4 times less likely to be HIV-positive than one who drops out of primary school.
Healthier, stronger families. 90% of women's earnings are reinvested back into the family, resulting in healthier, stronger children who are more likely to stay in school.
Working with ZanaAfrica we will help reduce absenteeism by 75% and enable girls to stay in the classroom and learn enough to advance to the next grade level.
Our vision is for her/ to become a global platform for inspiration, that will help keep girls in school by providing sanitary pads and additional educational services.
