Help A Sister In Nepal – part 1

To everyone who donated, bought home made rocky road, or came to the movie night, this is what it was all about. The money raised went to a foundation called Let’s Clean Up Nepal. Founder Raj and his team (Geeta, Sara, Sonam, Dikshya and Amrita) were able to provide health education sessions at a school in Duskot, Sindhupalchok. They covered oral hygiene, hand hygiene, puberty, sexual harassment and women’s sanitary health options. Money raised bought toothbrushes and toothpaste for all the students; reusable sanitary pad kits for the older female students, as well as women in the village. Thank you everyone. ❤️ #helpasisterinnepal #womanshealth #reusablesanitarypads #reusablesanitarykits #oralhealth #handhygiene #volunteer #fundraising
