BioGirl will produce 100% biodegradable sanitary pads using local materials while training young women in entrepreneurship. Income from BioGirl will fund free pads and skills training, turning girls from beneficiaries into empowered providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is more than charity. It is dignity. It is education. It is economic freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With your support, we can keep girls in school, protect their health, and break the cycle of poverty; one girl, one pad, one future at a time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-outline is-style-outline--1\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-pale-pink-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/padsforgirls.org\/?post_type=give_forms&amp;p=2126\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px\">Donate Today!<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Your contribution will help us:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8211; Finalize pad production and packaging<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8211; Distribute and test 10,000 sanitary pads<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8211; Expand services to more communities<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8211; Support vocational and entrepreneurship training<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &#8211; Strengthen program operations<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your gift ensures that a girl\u2019s period never limits her potential.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>-One Period Should Not End a Girl\u2019s Education- Across Liberia, girls miss school every month, risk infection, and suffer in silence simply because they cannot afford a pad.
