STAR Durable PADS Our mission: Provide sustainable, comfortable and affordable pads to girls and women of Uganda and beyond. Educate to empower.
(1)

Here in Uganda there exists a troubling problem for many young girls once they reach puberty, unable to afford menstrual hygiene materials, they are forced to drop out of school. This not only has an impact on the individual girls effected, but also creates barriers to progress and prosperity for the girls' future families and communities, impacting the country as a whole. STAR durable pads was created in reaction to this issue; we aim to offer an affordable, sustainable, and comfortable solution to girls and women. We hope to help as many girls as possible with a safe and healthy maintenance of their menstruation. All our pads are locally crafted, supporting seamstresses in the community. Profits made from the sale of our pads go towards offering sexual reproductive health trainings in schools and communities. Empowering women to succeed by promoting body awareness and body autonomy.

A menstrual myth rooted in superstition: there is no truth to the idea that a dog eating a used pad can prevent someone from having children.

Let’s end period misconceptions together. Speak up the next time you hear someone share this myth.
