I’m always up to something. I am one of the founders of Wombilee, the natural menstrual pad company! During my non-profit trips within Africa and Latin America, I learned about the significant number of females who miss their studies simply because they don’t have or can’t afford menstrual products. I started reaching out to menstrual pad companies but soon realized that they either weren’t responding or weren’t willing to sell bulks of pads at wholesale prices. My attitude has always been that I’m not going to keep asking someone repeatedly for something that I need; I’ll just get it done myself. And that’s how Wombilee came about, I needed pads for others, and I said why not make something better than even I can use, because if I can use it, I know other women can.
Wombilee also has a Giveback Initiative! When you purchase Wombilee’s products, you’re assisting in ending period poverty by helping a womb in need. These women need to know that they are cared for, so Wombilee distributes hypoallergenic, organic cotton, perforated Biodegradable Moderate pads. Knowing that some rural villages and small towns may not have the best waste management system, everything from the menstrual pads to the box is biodegradable. It all begins with us…
