The outreach before the pandemic also took us through the streets of Harola a village in Noida Sector 5 to gift a Menstrual cup each to 75 mothers of students at Gopi Chand School.
Given the lockdown WE got an opportune time to document some of the outreach done, Gopi Chand School was the venue for one of them. 75 medical-grade silicone cups were distributed to take care of the feminine hygiene of the mothers of the students from the school, sustainably. The menstrual cup lasts for eight to ten years hence a detailed session on the usage and Maintainance of the cup was essential.
The funds to purchase the menstrual cup for gifting were crowdsourced by the journalist Rituparna Chatterjee also popularly known as Masala Bai on Twitter. She is a prominent name in documenting & curating the #Metoo movement in India.

Over the years the feedback from the beneficiary has become the most essential part of any session and so was the case in Gopi Chand school. Finally wrapping up over some cold drinks and hot samosas.
