Happy women’s day to all you beautiful, strong and incredible women💕✨ today we honour the powerful and brave women that marched to the union buildings in 1956 to protest the unjust pass laws of apartheid! We honour and celebrate all the achievements of women across time❤️

Meeting the menstrual hygiene needs of all adolescent girls is a fundamental issue of human rights, dignity and public health. A lack of menstrual supplies and proper sanitary facilities leads to girls missing school.

Menstruation SHOULD NOT be a barrier to education.

Last week at Seven Steps Academy for the Deaf 📚 we spoke to the older leaners about menstruation, pregnancy, consent + safe sex🤰🏾Our dynamic intern Sarah took the sessions and at the end the leaners gave her some goodies to say thank you! ♥️#thecoraproject #menstrualhealth

We believe empowered women empower women, it is for this reason we work to improve the lives of young women in rural communities.

Did you know that period blood clots are #bloodynormal?

Period blood clots are clumps of blood mixed with tissue from the uterine lining. They form when blood and tissue cells sit and pool inside the uterus or vagina before exiting the body #normaliseperiods #menstrualcycle

Throwback to our dynamic period session at E.A. Janari Primary with a very enthusiastic group of learners🫶🏽 what a pleasure it was to teach these leaners about the importance of proper menstrual health and hygiene🩸 #period #southafrica #menstrualhealth

A little bit of kindness goes a long way💖“I was on my way to the shopping centre + I got my first #period. I was lucky to be approached by a kind lady who offered me a pad. She played a great role in informing me about the menstrual cycle”- Asanda Mbuku, Financial Advisor

[The CORA Project @theCORAproject]

We supported 175 girl leaners at Khwaza Secondary School in Cofimvaba in the Eastern Cape with pads❤️ Our ally @miss_buh assisted us with distributing them! #period #menstrualrights #southafrica

A menstruator goes through approx. 11k disposable pads +/or tampons in their lifetime😵 Single use period products + their packaging generate more than 200k tonnes of waste per year. Here are some sustainable options: menstrual cup,reusable pads,period underwear #BloodyNormal
