Project Dignity has distributed thousands of menstruation management packs to disadvantaged schoolgirls, aged between 10 and 19, across SA and now a survey shows that the packs are keeping the girls in school regularly.Reusable sanitary wear is allowing schoolgirls in semi-urban and rural areas of SA to attend classes regularly.
In 2010, a KwaZulu-Natal woman, Sue Barnes, who has a background in fashion design, created the country’s first reusable sanitary pad and underwear pack - Subz Pants and Pads - to address girls missing school because of the cost of sanitary wear.
