With the Mission of spreading awareness about health and hygiene during the menstrual period, the Rotary Club of Chennai Thiruvanmiyur has been reaching out to Schools, Colleges and communities. Rotary Club of Chennai Thiruvanmiyur and Inner wheel club of Chennai Thiruvanmiyur along with Procter and Gamble conducted the Menstrual health and Hygiene Awareness program at Mohanan Girls High school Royapettah in which over 160 students participated. Ms Niranjana Sundari talked about what is menstruation and what kind of healthy food one should take to remain healthy and fit. Ms Shantha Priya from P & G spoke about the various options available for the girls for taking care of themselves during their menstrual cycle, the correct way of using the pads as well as disposal of the used napkins. We also distributed free sanitary napkins from P&G to all the students.
Rotary club is prepared to conduct such programs as well as distribute free sanitary napkins to young girls if any school or college so desires. Kindly reach out to us at rcct41@gmail.com for arranging the program.
