Why does a pad still come in a brown bag?
That's the question 17-year-old Alayna has been asking for four years.
What began as her passion project, All By Alayna, turned into bags sold at school carnivals. She raised over PKR 100,000 and donated it to girls' education in underprivileged schools.
This time she went further. With the Rotary Club Sunset Millennium of Karachi and Santex (Butterfly), Alayna installed free pad dispensers in the girls' washrooms at The House of Learning, Karachi.
No brown bags. No shame. No girl missing school because she couldn't afford a pad.
As her mother Aisha said, she's always been an empathetic child, but no one knew it would become this.
Periods are natural. Access should be too. 🩸
Let's fight period poverty, together.
