Sanitary Aid Initiative outreach in Nigeria for distributing reuseable sanitary pads

About

The Sanitary Aid Initiative was established in January 2017 to address the needs of over 65% of the Nigerian female population who do not have access to period products and information. The organisation aims to provide free sanitary pads and other period products including soaps, wipes, toilet bags, disinfectant, clean underwear etc. to girls and women from low-income families across public schools and Internally Displaced Persons Camps across the country.

Through donations from individuals and our partners, we have provided over 31,000 girls and young women across 13 states in Nigeria with period products and information packs. We are proud to say that through continuous innovation and strategic planning, over 70% of our reach currently benefit from reusable and sustainable sanitary pads.

We are constantly looking for organisations to partner with in our drive to support women and girls across the country. Please see our page on donations for information on how you can help.
