SPONSOR A KIT BAG
FOR ONLY
£25 AND
CHANGE A WOMAN'S LIFE

FREEDOM   IN  A  BAG
Such a small thing,
a fabric bag, pulled tight
with blue ribbon,
bright patterned.
Within, the gift of freedom from
the monthly collective shame
inflicted on women whose
fate was foretold at birth.
The stain we share, uniting all,
mark of fertility, life-giving bleed,
made manageable, dignified,
a source of pride,
relief reflected in the
broad smiles illuminating
the rainbow scarfed women of Nepal.

FREEDOM KIT BAGS - WEAR WITH PRIDE!

Having access to sanitary wear is something women in the developed world take for granted, yet Menstrual Hygiene Management is an alien concept for many in Nepal. Life is hard, especially for those who live a rural life, but for women and girls this 'gift' of nature is an extra heavy burden to bear.
