Empowering Change
At TERJA Foundation, we are committed to fostering menstrual health equity and addressing the critical issue of period poverty. In our recent Menstrual Health Workshop held in Houston, we brought together volunteers, and community members for an impactful event focused on breaking down the barriers surrounding menstrual health.
The workshop tackled several key themes: addressing the financial burden of period products, promoting menstrual health awareness, and highlighting sustainable solutions like reusable sanitary pads. Through engaging discussions and hands-on activities, participants learned about the global issue of period poverty and how it affects millions of people around the world, including within our own communities. We explored ways to not only alleviate this burden but to empower women and girls through sustainable menstrual health options.
