Through our Sakhi Project, Rnisarg is empowering women in rural areas by providing menstrual cups, promoting both hygiene and economic independence. Not only are we improving access to sustainable products, but we are also offering training to these women, turning them into trainers who are now inspiring and educating others in their communities. Together, we are breaking barriers and creating a ripple effect of change. #SakhiProject #MenstrualHealth #WomenEmpowerment #Sustainability #CommunityChange

Established in 2016, by a group of doctors dedicated to delivering high-quality care despite limited resources. Their medical training and expertise enable them to analyze challenges and devise innovative solutions for difficult situations. Driven by the vision of creating livable cities, the foundation focuses on two key areas: waste management and road safety. Both of these issues are closely linked to the health of our planet and, consequently, to human well-being. #rnisarg #wastemanagement #roadsafety

The RNisarg Foundation is dedicated to making Thane a more livable city for all its residents. One of its key initiatives, S-MILES (Safety for Miles), was launched in 2014 with the adoption of Pokharan Road 1. With ongoing metro development and other efforts to improve commuting in the city, RNisarg has teamed up with the Walking Project to encourage citizens to take ownership of their footpaths. Recently, a community walk was held from Cadbury Junction Metro Station to Bhramala Talao, promoting this cause. Remember: Citizens make cities. Let’s work together to make Thane a city that takes pride in its footpaths. To get involved, join the group: https://lnkd.in/dKctVgis #roadsafety #Rnisarg #Thanenews

At Rnisarg, we believe in empowering women with the tools they need to manage their health with dignity and sustainability. Our Sakhi Project is an initiative aimed at revolutionizing menstrual hygiene for women in underserved communities by providing them with affordable, eco-friendly menstrual cups. In many parts of India, women continue to face challenges due to the high cost of sanitary products and a lack of awareness about alternative, sustainable options. Through the Sakhi Project, we are committed to breaking the cycle of period poverty by offering cost-effective menstrual cups—a long-term, reusable solution that is not only better for women’s health but also the planet. By providing these women with a sustainable menstrual product, we hope to foster better menstrual hygiene, reduce the stigma surrounding menstruation, and promote environmental responsibility. Menstrual cups can last for years, reducing the need for frequent purchases of disposable sanitary pads and helping women save money in the long run. This initiative is about more than just distribution—it's about creating awareness, building confidence, and providing women with the freedom to live their lives without the limitations of period poverty. We believe that when women have access to the right resources, they can take charge of their health, education, and futures. Together, let’s make a difference. Let's break the barriers of menstrual stigma and empower women to embrace a sustainable and healthier future with the Sakhi Project. #RnisargSakhiProject #MenstrualHygiene #SustainablePeriodSolutions #PeriodPositivity #EmpowerWomen #Sustainability
