Dear Friends and Family,As an ambassador of the Pad Project organization, I am passionate to pursue projects in hopes of working towards menstrual equity. With this, I am so happy to announce that I recently created a short film with some fellow ambassadors around the world. https://youtu.be/2P5XFN1Fljc?si=je3as-a9CFz09YfZOne of the ambassadors, Gabiro Benedict, is an advocate living in Uganda. We discussed the menstrual products individuals in his community would significantly benefit from and I wanted to initiate a fundraiser so that our community could help his.I hope that you will work to dismantle taboos around periods, openly talk about menstruation, and donate to the cause. Let's work together!Sincerely,Aarushi Khanna
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]

Partecipo a una campagna chiamata The Pad Project, "il progetto assorbente" per dare un contributo ad abolire una delle più grandi ed ingiuste discriminazioni nei confronti delle donne: il tabù del ciclo mestruale, sul quale sono state ricamate le leggende ed i divieti più assurdi e discriminanti che io abbia mai sentito. In alcuni paesi l'inizio delle mestruazioni significa per molte donne dover interrompere la scuola, vista l'impossibilità di gestire a livello sociale e pratico il sanguinamento. Sociale a causa dell'estrema censura e vergogna sul sangue mestruale imposta ed instillata alle donne, tanto da dover nascondere una cosa così naturale ed anzi così legata alla fertilità femminile, grazie alla quale è garantita la nostra presenza sulla terra.Pratico perchè queste donne spesso non hanno accesso a prodotti come assorbenti e simili, che permettano di uscire di casa e svolgere le normali attività quotidiane durante il sanguinamento. Dal 2015 ad oggi il progetto ha ottenuto l'ascolto di 42 stati, 94 paesi ed ha scatenato un dibattito globale sulle mestruazioni. Il tabù mestruale è, a mio avviso, uno dei più palesi prodotti di un mondo modellato su misura di un solo genere tradizionalmente inteso, quello maschile. Ora se volete, aiutiamo chi vuole rimodellarlo.GrazieAgata
Queridos amigos y familiares : ¡Únase a mí y al Proyecto Pad en la lucha global por la igualdad menstrual! El Proyecto Pad es una organización sin multas de lucro, organización al principio de que "un período debe terminar una oración, no la educación de una niña". En la "Comisión de la Condición Jurídica y Social de la Mujer" de 2013 en las Naciones Unidas, un grupo de estudiantes de secundaria y su maestra, Melissa Berton, descubrieron que las niñas de todo el mundo se ven obligadas a faltar o perder la escuela por completo al comienzo de sus períodos, debido a la falta de acceso a suministros menstruales higiénicos y asequibles. Melissa y sus alumnos se comprometieron a crear un documental que crea conciencia sobre el tema y formar un club llamado The Pad Project.Seis años después, en 2019, esa película, PERIODO. FIN DE SENTENCIA., Ganó el Premio de la Academia al Mejor Cortometraje Documental, y ese club se cambió en la organización 501 (c) 3 sin multas de lucro que les escribo hoy. Gracias al apoyo de personas como usted, The Pad Project ha tenido el placer de escuchar de 42 estados, 94 países, y ha provocado una conversación global sobre la menstruación. Aún así, aunque The Pad Project se siente humillado por toda la ayuda que han recibido, ¡la lucha por la igualdad menstrual acaba de comenzar! Espero que continúes avanzando en sus objetivos desmantelando los tabúes en torno a la menstruación, creando tu propio capítulo del Proyecto Pad y donando a su organización.¡Ayúdenlos a llegar a los 50 estados, 195 países y empoderen a más niñas y mujeres! No pueden hacerlo sin ti. [Name]prof.Agustina

Remember when you were in middle and high school and nothing would have mortified you more than the thought of having a blood stain on your pants that everyone could see? Remember when you first started paying for your own tampons and pads? It turned out they were way more expensive than you thought. Plus you always had to have a whole supply of kinds including super plus, plus, overnight, regular, light, liners, tampons and pads. You often had to carry supplies with you just in case it showed up at the worst possible time. God forbid that anyone knows you have your period. The fear of bleeding through your clothes stays with you even as an adult. But what if you didn't have pads or tampons at all? What if you couldn't go anywhere or do anything because you had no barrier between your blood and the world? The best you could do is possibly some rags... For many women in the developing world, this is the case. Inadequate access to sanitary products, toilets, running water, etc. cause many girls to drop out of school. More alarming, for me, are the inhumane menstrual traditions that still exist in some countries. Many aren’t based on religion, but rather on long standing regional traditions. They range from the merely humiliating to the dangerous. Women can be forced to live in unsafe conditions outside, away from family, because of their “impurity.” They must stay in this shed during the day to avoid accidentally touching a plant or animal and destroying it. But we can help. I am so grateful to have been chosen as one of a hundred international ambassadors to spread the word about an amazing foundation, The Pad Project. I am asking you to please watch Period. End of Sentence. on Netflix, the Academy Award winning short documentary about the needs of these women,The Pad Project AND what we can all do to help. My goal of $43,500 is based on the cost of setting up one automated pad machine as well as materials and paid labor for a year. Packaging and distribution will employ 8-10 women. Automated Pad Machine (for Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Sri Lanka) ● Pads Produced: 80,000 to 100,000 pads per month (1 million pads per year)● People Served: 8,000 to 10,000 menstruators per month● Pad Machine, Accessories, and Toolkit: $30,000 USD● Raw Materials: $10,000 USD for 400,000 pads● Training and Operations $3,500 USD● Grand Total: $43,500 USD (travel costs, taxes, insurance, taxes, etc. not included) Subsequent years will be much less expensive, mostly labor and raw materials. I like to think of it as “The Million Pad March.” Even when COVID keeps us at home, we can all still do something to educate and empower other women all over the world. Thanks for your help and I will keep you posted on how we are doing! Andrea Any questions? Want to help more? Contact me at andreagruber23 @gmail.com

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]
