Redefine The Cycle
The Restoration Hem Project gives girls in Zimbabwe access to sustainable menstrual hygiene solutions.
A girl in Zimbabwe may miss up to 5 days of school every month because she doesn't have what she needs to manage her period. Girls often resort to using newspaper, corn husks, cotton, or rags to manage their menstruation. A lack of period products, inadequate or no toilet facilities, and limited health education are all barriers keeping girls at home.
PHYSICAL
Meeting her physical needs by providing local access to sustainable feminine hygiene solutions.
SOCIAL
No more isolation, shame, or embarrassment. Her opportunities are limitless.
EMOTIONAL
Empowering her through education and identity.
"Before we received the kits, we girls were facing many problems due to inadequate resources. Some of us would be absent from school for many days during menstruation. But now, we can do anything."
