There is Power in Femininity
Plain and simple, access to feminine products is a human right. Most women in third-world countries cannot afford sanitary pads and must hide out once a month during their menstrual cycle, ultimately resulting in school dropout.
Wings for Women educates young women in Haiti about menstruation and feminine hygiene during their reproductive age, encouraging them to stay engaged in school and preventing dropout. This education-based program is designed to combat this issue by giving young women access to reusable menstrual pads, the opportunity to create a business of their own and the chance to pave their way to higher education.
Our Three-Fold Vision is to:
1) Empower young women to prevent school dropout because of their menstrual cycle
2) Offer them a chance to save money to invest in their higher education or business creation
3) Bring affordable and eco-friendly feminine hygiene products to their communities
At Mission Waco Mission World, we believe that menstrual pads should never be a luxury item. Growth and sustainability in communities start with empowering the women who lead them — and YOU can be a part of initiating a dynamic shift toward these women’s academic and personal success.
“Even young girls grow tired and weary, even young men stumble and fall, but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not grow faint. Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.”
Isaiah 40:30
