Hi,
July 10-20 2017 Is quickly approaching - I will be part of a team that will help aid the southern Sudanese refugees that have migrated to the borders of Uganda Africa due to the civil war.
Aside from other basic necesities we will provide women with hygene products they all deserve.
But we NEED YOUR HELP! We will personally be distributing and documenting this experience.
"Women are unable to afford or access proper menstrual products, many girls and women rely on crude, improvised materials like scraps of old clothing, pieces of foam mattress, toilet paper, leaves, and banana fibres to manage their menstruation – all of which are unhygienic, ineffective, and uncomfortable. "

I have personally contacted AFRIpads located in Uganda where they manufacture these reusable Deluxe Menstrual kits for women.
These Reusable Deluxe Menstrual kit is a full solution for a woman or girl to use for 12+ months! The kit has 3 Maxi pads, 1 Super Maxi pad + a storage bag and comes with use and care instructional guides.
This kit goes for $4.65 each (+ shipment costs). My goal is to provide the minimum of 100 women with this kit.
I hope you can find it in your heart to join me in this great humanitarian effort!
Truly,
Josalind Mercado
