Dear Friends and Family,Please join me and The Pad Project in the global fight for menstrual equality! The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." At the 2013 “Commission on the Status of Women” at the United Nations, a group of high school students and their teacher, Melissa Berton, learned that girls all over the world are forced to miss or drop out of school entirely at the onset of their periods, due to lack of access to hygienic and affordable menstrual supplies. Melissa and her students committed to create a documentary that would raise awareness about the issue and to form a club called The Pad Project. Six years later, in 2019, that film, PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE., won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, and that club became the 501(c)3 nonprofit that I write to you about today. Thanks to the support of caring people like you, The Pad Project has had the pleasure of hearing from 42 states, 94 countries, and has sparked a global conversation about menstruation. Still, while The Pad Project is humbled by all of the help they have received, the fight for menstrual equality has only just begun! My hope is that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation, creating your own Pad Project chapter, and donating to their organization. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you.[Name]

Eight key facts on menstruation: On average a woman menstruates for about 7 years during their lifetime. The first period can be met with either celebration, fear or concern. For every girl, this signifies an important transition to womanhood - a time when they would benefit from the support of family and friends. Many girls do not have complete and accurate understanding of menstruation as a normal biological process. Educating girls before their first period -- and, importantly, boys -- on menstruation, builds their confidence, contributes to social solidarity and encourages healthy habits. Such information should be provided at home and at school. Poor menstrual hygiene can pose physical health risks and has been linked to reproductive and urinary tract infections.[ii] [iii] Many girls and women have limited options for affordable menstrual materials. Providing access to private facilities with water and safer low-cost menstrual materials could reduce urogenital diseases.[iv] Girls and women with disabilities and special needs face additional challenges with menstrual hygiene and are affected disproportionately with lack of access to toilets with water and materials to manage their period. Many women and girls do not have access to materials to manage their menstruation, especially in times of emergency -- natural disasters and conflicts. In emergencies, UNICEF provides dignity kits to women and girls, which include sanitary pads, a flashlight and whistle for personal safety when using the toilet. Globally, 2.3 billion people lack basic sanitation services and in Least Developed Countries only 27 per cent of the population has a handwashing facility with water and soap at home. Managing periods at home is a major challenge for women and adolescent girls who lack these basic facilities at home. About half of the schools in low-income countries lack adequate drinking water, sanitation and hygiene crucial for girls and female teachers to manage their period. Inadequate facilities can affect girls’ experience at school, causing them to miss school during their period. All schools should provide running water, safe and clean toilets for adolescent girls. Thanks to the support of caring people like you, The Pad Project has had the pleasure of hearing from 42 states, 94 countries, and has sparked a global conversation about menstruation. Still, while The Pad Project is humbled by all of the help they have received, the fight for menstrual equality has only just begun! My hope is that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation, creating your own Pad Project chapter, and donating to their organization. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you. If you have taken the time to read through this please consider donating as well. My goal is $100 for the first donation. Thank you.

My hope is that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation, creating your own Pad Project chapter, and donating to their organization. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you. - Arvind
Dear Friends and Family,Please join me and The Pad Project in the global fight for menstrual equality! The Pad Project is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the principle that, "A period should end a sentence, not a girl's education." At the 2013 “Commission on the Status of Women” at the United Nations, a group of high school students and their teacher, Melissa Berton, learned that girls all over the world are forced to miss or drop out of school entirely at the onset of their periods, due to lack of access to hygienic and affordable menstrual supplies. Melissa and her students committed to create a documentary that would raise awareness about the issue and to form a club called The Pad Project. Six years later, in 2019, that film, PERIOD. END OF SENTENCE., won the Academy Award for Best Documentary Short, and that club became the 501(c)3 nonprofit that I write to you about today. Thanks to the support of caring people like you, The Pad Project has had the pleasure of hearing from 42 states, 94 countries, and has sparked a global conversation about menstruation. Still, while The Pad Project is humbled by all of the help they have received, the fight for menstrual equality has only just begun! My hope is that you will continue to further their goals by dismantling taboos around menstruation, creating your own Pad Project chapter, and donating to their organization. Please help them reach all 50 states, 195 countries, and empower more girls and women! They can't do it without you.With love, Annie Hunt
