Bald 4 A Cause 2024 - UWC Maastricht

Hi!

If you want to support someone on shaving or cutting their hair in the support of a good cause this is the place, every euro counts!

This year the money donated will go to the organisation The Pad Project. The Pad Project’s mission is to create and cultivate local and global partnerships to end period stigma and to empower women and all menstruators worldwide.

Menstruators around the world, especially in low income communities, often face a lack of access to menstrual products. Without proper sanitary supplies, they may resort to using newspapers, dirty rags, and even leaves to manage their periods. The combination of period poverty, stigmatization, and inadequate reproductive and sexual health education has major consequences for menstruators’ wellbeing. It can also prevent menstruators from staying in school, thereby ending their education.
