Join ILS & WIL for a presentation from Pads 4 Refugees, a 501c3 non-profit whose mission is to support the dignity of women and girls in refugee camps by providing them with period products. Most governments and international bodies do not provide regular, consistent aid in the form of period products. These women are then placed in the position of having to use unsanitary items like leaves, moss, or old rags every month to manage their period. Without proper hygiene products, young women are also unable to attend school when they are on their period. Pads 4 Refugees was started to fill the gaps in period care. It works with partners on the ground in Greece to deliver the pads.
