How does supporting the fight against period poverty, getting creative, and working as part of a team sound to you?

As part of Women's Health Week, we're supporting Days for Girls, a global organisation that helps women and girls around the world manage their periods with dignity. Through reusable menstrual health kits and menstrual health education, Days for Girls empowers women and girls to stay in school, pursue work, and reach their full potential.

By attending this event, you will help us trace, cut, attach fasteners, mark sizes, and pack menstrual health kits filled with sustainable, cost-effective products that help women and girls manage their periods. These kits will then be sent to local and rural communities around the world.

We need your help to pack these kits and support a global movement of empowerment and change.

Together, we can make a real difference in the fight against period poverty.

This event has been brought to you in collaboration with the Unimelb Rotaract Club
