Rada Inspire: Raffles, You can Help Make A Difference
Empowering young girls with sustainable reusable sanitary wear. During Woman’s Month as we focus on the important role women fulfil in society, RADA puts out an appeal to the public to support the RADA MiPad Project. The project was launched two and a half years ago, with the first distribution of reusable sanitary wear to schoolgirls living in the small rural Free State town of Philippolis.
RADA’s commitment to empowering young lives has led to the ongoing distribution of RADA MiPad packs to Grade 7 schoolgirls in vulnerable communities. Thus far, with the invaluable support of sponsors, RADA has distributed 12,525 MiPads and counting. The feedback received
from girls has been predominantly and overwhelmingly positive, “MiPad changed my life because I am longer having to buy new pads every month.”
“I can now save my money for other things because the MiPad is reusable.” “MiPads are comfortable to wear allowing me to focus on my schoolwork.”
Research continues to show that girls can miss up to five days of school per month due to their menstrual cycle and/or the inability to afford sanitary wear. Sadly, a female necessity that is viewed as a luxury by the impoverished.
RADA is aware that even though girls make the responsible choice to attend and finish their schooling, it is often a challenge when they are on their monthly cycle. RADA is all about empowerment and with this in mind, they manufacture their own brand of reusable sanitary
pads which have a life span of up to five years. Not only will this assist in keeping a girl in class for her high school years, but it will also help alleviate the financial burden faced by households who can now exclude expensive sanitary pads from their monthly shopping.
The RADA MiPad Project is aimed at creating a positive and lasting impact on the lives of young women by enabling them to complete their education while promoting their self-esteem and sense of equality.
Each RADA MiPad pack (includes three reusable pads) costs R115.00 and by supporting the RADA MiPad Project, you will assist girls to focus solely on their education without the monthly worry of added expenses.
