A quiet thank you, as the year comes to a close This year, FlowReady emphasized building trust with girls, families, and schools, assisting over 250 girls. Support included menstrual health education for girls and boys, distribution of sanitary supplies, and creating safe school environments.…

"I was that girl — and for me, it was traumatic. I couldn’t handle my period for years after my first one… there was so much guessing, gambling, and shame — and the fear of smelling, leaking, or “getting it wrong. Oh, I stunk, I leaked and got it wrong!" flowready.org/donate/

Today on #DayOfTheGirl, we celebrate girls’ power and potential. 🩸 At #FlowReady, we equip pre-menarchial girls with knowledge, kits, and support — so periods don’t hold them back, they push them forward. 👇 flowready.org/donate/ #MenstrualHealth

Congratulations and all the best to you in your mission! ❤️🩸

That’s why we’re working to stock the school safe room — not only with supplies like buckets, pads & sheets, but with painkillers. Too often, girls are told to simply “power through” the pain as if it’s just nature. Help us change that. Help us keep these girls pain-free. 👇 flowready.org/donate/

We’re official! FlowReady is now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. Together we’re ending many myths including that #menstruation = marriage. Girls deserve school, dignity, and brighter futures Join us and reach girls before the #firstperiod. 👉 flowready.org/donate/

We cannot end period poverty without ending toilet poverty. And we cannot build a better future for girls if we ignore the most basic question they’re still being forced to ask: Where can I go? #MenstrualHygieneDay #sanitation #MHDay2025
