Date: 28th December, 2020

Location: Palghar

As Menstrual hygiene and new COVID – 19 pandemic is a challenge in India, and these underprivileged communities at Nandore and Kolgaon, Palghar do not have easy access/cannot afford to buy sanitisers, masks and sanitary napkins due to their economic background. Ebco identified these issues and took an initiative together with Concern India Foundation to distribute free sanitisers and masks to underprivileged communities through ASHA and Aaganwadi workers. Sanitary napkins were also distributed to adolescent girls and were also educated about menstrual hygiene system and healthy habits that can be practiced.
