How we helpEd during COVID-19

July 2020

The Indian Red Cross Society, West Bengal Branch distributed Mooncatcher kits as part of their family relief packets to women affected by the cyclone. The packets included a saree, mosquito net and reusable face masks. Our kits were able to reach over 1,000 women.

June 2020

Due to the pandemic women have had a tough time getting the sanitary pads they need, especially in poorer countries like India. In partnership with the Joint Women’s Programme Nithari, we distributed Mooncatcher kits and provided a session to demonstrate how they are used and cleaned. These pads help minimize their monthly expenses and free them from having to deal with the disposal of single use pads regularly.

We partnered with Saar Media Advertising to run a menstrual hygiene workshop in Haridwar.

On May 28th, 2020, we partnered with Vishwa Yuvak Kendra and Insoculation Hub to host a webinar to discuss and celebrate menstrual Hygiene Day. The 3 hour webinar featured 14 esteemed panelists and garnered over 600 viewers live on Zoom and Facebook. We are grateful to all the panelists for the time and effort they dedicated to share their views and experiences with the development of the Menstrual Hygiene Management efforts in India.

We distributed over 5,000 face masks and thousands of reusable pads to migrant workers to assist during the COVID-19 pandemic. We partnered with the Inosculation Hub to distribute masks and pads to migrant workers
