I am an assistant teacher at the school, and today's session conducted by Shalini ma'am has been highly beneficial for our students. She covered all the points that spark curiosity in children's minds but are often difficult for them to express or understand. Shalini ma'am explained comprehensively how periods occur, how the egg forms, how it is released when not fertilized, why there is pain, why there is discharge, how to use pads, and how to dispose of them. The session was incredibly well-received by both myself and the students. These discussions will prove invaluable for our children's future. I extend my gratitude to Pinkishe's team for installing an incinerator in our school. Now, our students will dispose of pads properly, alleviating the embarrassment and difficulty associated with it. I've personally faced challenges with heavy bleeding and disposal, which often led to embarrassment. With the incinerator, our students will no longer face these issues. It's a relief for us women, as we no longer have to feel ashamed about where to dispose of pads. Thank you, Pinkishe, for making this possible.

My name is Sneha Upadhyaya, and today, Pinkishe Foundation and NPCL conducted a menstruation-related session, which was quite beneficial for the children. The discussions regarding cleanliness were particularly insightful and helpful for the children. The installation of an incinerator for school cleanliness is commendable. I would like more such sessions that would be beneficial for our children. Thank you.

Hi, I'm Safia from class 8. I'm thrilled that your team visited our school to teach us about periods. Before, we lacked knowledge on many important aspects, but now, thanks to you, we're well-informed. I want to express my gratitude and thank your team for emphasizing hygiene practices and teaching us to dispose of pads properly by folding them into the incinerator. Your visit has made a significant positive impact on our understanding and well-being. Thank you!
