Purpose of Donation

As of now, the Foundation is seeking three types of donation, as detailed below:

• Donation for Funding the Capital Cost of Setting Up New Manufacturing Units
  The first is donation towards setting up Low-cost sanitary pad manufacturing units. Estimated cost of setting up a manufacturing unit with semi-automatic machine is around Rs 10 lakhs. Donation of any amount (starting from Rs. 1000 upwards) towards meeting this capital cost would be highly appreciated.
• Donation and Sponsorship for Organizing Health Awareness Workshops

  The foundation strives to organize regular workshops and training program for raising awareness towards menstrual hygiene and social and behavioural change. These workshops generally cost in the range of Rs. Fifty Thousand each. Any donation and sponsorship towards this end is welcome.

• Donating for Directly Providing Sanitary Pads to Girls

  The third type of donation which the foundation is seeking is towards distributing free Kishoree pads to the needly girls from poor and disadvantaged sections. On the estimate that a women/girl would need 6 to 8 pads per month (menstrual cycle), the annual requirement of pad comes to around 15 packets of Kishoree pads. At the estimated cost of Rs. 30 per packet, the cost of providing pads to 10 girls for a year (10 x 15 x 30) is Rs. 4,500/-. Any donation towards this end is also welcome.
