" Ever since I heard about the Millennial Fellowship I have wanted to be a part of it, purely because of the kind of exposure I would get. It would be blessing to observe and learn from other like minded individuals and to gain the skills I would need to help be a part of an eco friendly India. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Bleed Green
Menstrual Education is lacking in many parts of India and due to a very large economic gap in society those who are aware of menstrual health, to whatever extend it may be, are least bothered about the sustainability of the products they use. I want to promote and encourage the use of sustainable menstrual products.
