For girls in developing countries, menstruation often means missing a week of school every month. When your family struggles to put food on the table, the purchase of sanitary products like pads and tampons, is impossible.

Girls use old clothing, dirty rags, or even leaves to manage their periods, however these methods are both dangerous to their health and difficult to conceal, often leading to shame and girls being targeted with violence.

For $20, your purchase of a sanitary kit will help girls in Lesotho stay in school while menstruating. Each kit includes enough sanitary pads for 6 months, that's an extra 30 days a girl can be in school with the supplies to focus on her education rather than worrying about menstruation.

WHAT’S IN A KIT?

• A large pack of disposable pads (enough for 6 months)
• 3 pairs of underwear
• A washcloth
• Soap
• A beautiful carrying bag made by local seamstresses in Lesotho (made from recycled fabric)
