Join the She28campaign





I've just stumbled upon a video and I wanted to share it out, I also suggest you to do likewise and spread the word. 
The video has been made by she28campaign which is a non-profit organization founded in 2007 and whose mission is to improve the quality of people's lives in develping countries addressing social and healh problems. 
she stand for sustainable health enterprise. 

"At she, we believe that a girl's life does not have to stop every 28 days because of her menstrual cycle. Missing up to 50 days of school or work is not only a "blood cost" to women and girls, but to their families, communities, and nations as a whole."


Millions of girls and women in developing countries miss up to 50 days of work or school per year because they do not have access to affordable menstrual pads, therefore they turn to rags which are uneffective, unhygienic and even potentially harmfull in combination with the lack of a clean water supply.

Currentely she is helping women in Africa to start their own businesses to manufacture and distribute affordable, quality, and ecofriendly sanitary pads.

  



she's project can bring not only health and better conditions for local women, but can also favour education and economic growth. Here's what they ask to do to support them:
