A Brighter Future with Every Stitch
In New Zealand, getting your period is something to talk about, prepare for, and support loved ones through. But in many parts of the world, it’s still a silent struggle.
For girls like 13-year-old Glory in Tanzania, that first period can mark the beginning of a painful choice: fall behind at school or find unsafe alternatives just to manage the bleeding. With sanitary pads too expensive or unavailable, many girls miss school during their period. One week a month quickly becomes months of lost learning—and for some, the end of their education altogether.
But thanks to sponsors like you, something powerful is changing.
Across Glory’s community, girls and boys are learning how to make reusable sanitary pads - a life-changing skill that brings both dignity and opportunity. Girls are sewing for themselves. Boys are learning so they can support their sisters, mums, and classmates with empathy, understanding, and practical help.
Glory even made a video to show you how it’s done—and how proud she is to be part of something that’s reshaping the future for girls in her community.
This isn’t just about hygiene. It’s about freedom.
With clean, safe, reusable pads, girls like Glory can stay in school, stay healthy, and stay focused on their dreams. They’re taking charge of their bodies, their education, and their futures—with confidence, pride, and strength.
And it’s all possible because of you.
Your support is putting tools and knowledge into their hands. You’re helping girls rise above poverty, reclaim their futures, and lead with courage and hope.
With you by their side, their potential is limitless—just like the stars of Matariki.
