Meet Esther. She’s a bright and ambitious girl from a rural village in Kenya. Like many girls her age, Esther was excited to start school and pursue her dreams. But as she entered adolescence, she faced a challenge that threatened to derail her education: menstruation.
Esther’s family couldn’t afford to buy her sanitary pads, and so she had to resort to using old rags and pieces of cloth during her period. This makeshift solution was uncomfortable and unhygienic, causing her to miss school during her period and fall behind in her studies.
But then something amazing happened. A kind stranger subscribed to Ubinti on Esther’s behalf, ensuring that she would receive a regular supply of Ubinti sanitary pads, delivered right to her doorstep. With this subscription, Esther never had to worry about running out of pads or missing school due to her period.
