We operate as a non-profit and as a social enterprise.
As a non-profit, we are constantly providing innovative ways to help keep young African schoolgirls from underserved communities in school and educate them on periods and puberty while making sanitary pads free and accessible.
On the other hand, as a social enterprise, PadHer manufactures and sells high-quality, low-cost period pain relief devices and reusable sanitary pads and uses the profit from selling them to help fight period poverty in Africa. For every pad we sell, we donate a free reusable sanitary pad to a young African schoolgirl who cannot afford one. As a social enterprise, we also make period education inclusive by donating one comic book to a young African schoolgirl in an underserved community for every comic book we sell.
