What we do

One programme. Every piece of it.

Pads, education, disposal and follow-through, in the same school, for years. This is what a Pinkishe programme looks like on the ground.

CSR you can stand behind

  • Solely menstrual health for nearly a decade. It is not one cause among twenty for us.
  • Reporting you can log into. Our in-house IoT dashboard shows every unit and every refill, live.
  • Fully registered. 80G, 12A, FCRA and CSR-1, and listed on the NSE Social Stock Exchange.
  • Your geography, your scale. Aspirational districts, urban poor settlements, or your own factories and offices.

“When you work with Pinkishe you can always be sure about the impact, and you can always be sure about the reporting. We don’t leave you in the lurch.”

Menstrual health is now a fundamental right

The Supreme Court of India directed free pads and functional toilets in every school. We spent a decade helping make that ask undeniable. Now we are on the ground making it real.

Give a girl her school days back.

₹500 protects one girl for a whole year: safe pads and honest education, inside her own school.
