Reusable Cloth Pads for Environmental Benefits

We believe that each and every one of us, who are born on this earth, is responsible for the wellness of our earth .We treat the earth as our mother and we call her “Mother earth”. But what is the point of dumping menstrual waste on someone whom we call a mother.

Story of Giocare Reusable Cloth Pads

Gramalaya, a 34-year-old NGO, Approved by Ministry of Jal Shakti, Government of India as a key resource centre works with the adolescent girls in the schools of Tamilnadu and Puducherry. Gramalaya constructs sanitary complexes at schools, provides health and hygiene education ensuring the usage and maintenance of the toilets in collaboration with the CSR Initiatives of Corporates.

In the year of 2016, while working with the girl students, a particular behavior was discovered among adolescent girls in most of the schools. Girl students were avoiding the usage of school toilets and sanitary complexes, because they were unusable and unclean. The rate of absenteeism among girl students (during menstrual periods) was also high in schools, which eventually resulted in the increase of school drop-out rate of girl students.

Gramalaya, the pioneer of MHM Movement in India now became the role model for various NGO’s and organizations supporting the Menstrual Hygiene Management Movement and the Eco-friendly Initiative. The ultimate aim of Gramalaya and Giocare is to Educate, Empower and Emancipate women from all menstruation related health issues and make reusable cloth pads accessible to everyone in India.
