My name is Nyisha Solanki. I am 15-years-old and a Grade 11 student at the DPS, Sector 45, Gurugram.

I am very passionate about helping others, especially those who are less privileged than I am. I strongly believe in "giving back to the society". Helping and benefitting others makes me truly happy. There is an indescribable sense of fulfillment that accompanies helping society. Knowing that my actions have positively impacted someone's life, even in the smallest of ways, fills my heart with joy and purpose. It is a joy to make a difference in another's life, to see them smile. By putting myself in someone else's shoes, I gain a deeper understanding of their struggles, challenges, and aspirations.

For women and girls in homes that we come from, sanitary pads are the norm and not a luxury.

For girls and women from poor homes, it is a luxury. To manage their menstrual needs they unfortunately are forced to resort to practices that are unhygienic and lead to health issues. The solution is to give them a menstrual hygiene kit that is cost-effective, lasts long, and is not too bulky. It impacts their health, education, and income ( no missing school or work) and gives them immense confidence.

The Hygiene kit that is being is unique as its reusable. It has 5 pads - 3 for medium flow and 2 for heavy flow. It lasts for 12-15 months and reduces dramatically the amount of waste created (as otherwise pads are dumped every month). As they last for so long they are also cost effective. Disposable/Normal sanitary pads have to be bought repeatedly, cost INR 50-100 per month, and are very damaging to the environment as they create huge waste.

The cost of this hygiene kit (including distribution, training the women/girls, etc) is just INR 500 per pack of 5. The cost of distribution and training them is very high as it's done in small batches.

I request all of you to support my campaign. Every act of kindness, whether big or small, has the potential to ripple outward, inspiring others to take action. Let's come together and do our bit. Each individual has the power to make a difference and that collective efforts can shape a brighter future for all.
