Many education challenges affect children from low income countries including Malawi such as hunger, lack of tuition fees, and shortage of teachers, classrooms, learning resources and poor menstrual hygiene management. Several organisations including the government have projects to solve other challenges but there is no visible commitment to the menstrual management challenge!

1 out of 10 girls i

n low income areas is absent from school for 4/5 days during each month’s cycle because they commonly use a one layer of thin chitenje fabric which does have any absorption power and usually leaks exposing girls to ridicule by their friends. This has pushed girls to stay out of school for the whole menstrual cycle and resume class attendance upon menstrual cycle completion. Most girls/ families have never heard of disposable sanitary pads and do not know where they can get the pads, and even if they did, most families cannot afford to buy pads monthly due to low incomes. Repeated monthly absenteeism takes toll on educational attainment. Thats why we set up Tina Pads - to provide not only a reusable sanitary solution but one that was tested and high quality.

Tina pads high five "WHY" behind our business. We solely exist to Keep Girls in School by eradicating period poverty through provision of reusable pads access! It makes us happy , it makes us come alive. Every girl deserves to be in class during their me**es, not at home simply because they cant afford and access functional sustainable sanitary towels. Creating gender equality , contributing to educating a girl child, offering protection and comfort from our colourful , durable reusable pads.

Menstrual hygiene is a serious issue among cyclone Freddy victims .
Support them by donating reusable sanitary pads and we have taken out our mark up on the pads price as our contribution to every pack to be donated.

Our reduced price is mk5,000.00 for a pack of 5 large pads. If you want to add underwear, lets us know too.
Our pads have 3 years warranty.

We have devised ways on how the campers can dry their pads too as that was our concern at first so we will work with each one of you buying in bulk and brief you on drying for the beneficiaries. ( We checked out a few camps and heard what the incharges said)

28th May 2022 marks another auspicious day to celebrate menstruation globally , yet in Malawi some girls still miss classes when menstruating. A quick chat with parents in one of our sites reveals something that needs action

School knock out time is 14:00 hours , and now girls fear that the makeshift cloth given might have an odour and make them be a ridicule by boys
Others says they don't have wash/ change rooms they can use to change into a fresh makeshift cloth or pad ( they use makeshift cloths because access and affordability to menstrual products is a problem . The makeshift cloth is an intergenerational solution to managing me**es . It is a folded cotton material )
Tinapads is committed to ending period poverty by fundraising for enough pads to be donated to girls for free. They are some households who can't afford a pads budget while acknowledging that some can manage
