What is Period Poverty

<br>

<h2><font color="#051ADC">What is </font>
<font color="#8710CB">Period Poverty?</font></h2>
<br>
UNESCO estimates that one in ten girls in Sub-Saharan Africa is absent from schoolduring their menstrual cycle.  For many girls, menstruation is associated with negativity, shame and isolation – and in several societies, it can come with prohibitions from normal daily activities.
For vulnerable girls living in poverty, period onset can lead to increased school absenteeism or dropping out altogether. Stigmas and taboos surrounding period often mean they are only spoken off hurriedly, in hushed tones, denying many girls access to information about puberty and leaving them unprepared when they have their first period.

<h2><font color="#051ADC">KNOW MORE ABOUT </font><font color="#8710CB">OUR CAMPAIGN</font></h2>
<br>

<h3><font color="#3D3C3C">In South Africa, 1 out of 3 girls suffers from period poverty.</font></h3><br>  And no access to pads means no access to school, making pads the obstacle and distance between them and their education. They fall miles behind where they want to be…But their sisters will never let this happen.
We decided to create a movement, a nationwide call on solidarity to encourage women, along with Always, to join forces and help out their South African sisters go to school everyday of the month, even on their period.

 <h2><font color="#051ADC">WHAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN DOING TO SOLVE THE CRISIS? </font><br>
 <font color="#8710CB">Always Africa’s #EndPeriodPOverty #BloodSisters</font></h2>
 <br>

<p>The ‘Always Keeping Girls in School’ programme was launched to empower girls with essential puberty education to reduce stigma and build up confidence in young girls. Started in 2006, the program has so far distributed over 50 million Always pads to over 400,000 girls in Uganda, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa. By providing Always products like sanitary pad donations and samples, Always allows girls to commit to their education and future, without interruptions – period!
For more vulnerable girls, we provide an annual supply of pads, supported with a tailored 12 module programme to suit their needs. The programme has now evolved to include young boys in the education sessions, empowering them to become part of the change in normalizing the conversation around periods and become supportive of the Menstrual Hygiene Management needs of women and girls within households, communities, and schools.
We all have a role to play to #EndPeriodPoverty and end the stigma attached to menstruation. Both government and private sector interventions are critical in positively impacting menstrual health management by providing platform for dialogues to happen, which can reduce the stigma and suffering that come with menstruation.
As a feminine care company, we believe it is our role to highlight the challenges girls face, offer safe sanitary pads and support initiatives that ensure a continuous drum beat of activities around Menstrual Health Hygiene education. Read more about the Always Promise towards bettering menstrual hygiene and What’s in an Always pad that makes them absolutely safe.</p>
