Sanitary Pad Distribution Drive – Project Shrimati
On World Menstruation Day, Ethernet Xpress Foundation proudly launched Project Shrimati, a menstrual health initiative dedicated to breaking taboos and building awareness around menstrual hygiene. As part of this drive, we distributed eco-friendly sanitary pads and encouraged open conversations on a subject that truly matters for the empowerment and well-being of women and young girls.
Our mission through this project is simple yet powerful to normalize menstrual health discussions, provide safe and sustainable solutions, and inspire confidence among women and students across Goa.
