Community Impact Projects
Project AASHRITHA is Eco Hub Foundation’s flagship initiative dedicated to improving menstrual health, hygiene, and awareness among underprivileged adolescent girls and young women.
The project focuses on breaking the silence around menstruation, ending period poverty, and providing safe, sustainable solutions for better health and dignity.
Currently, under Project AASHRITHA, we are distributing organic sanitary pads to 1,000 girls in Navalgund Taluk, Dharwad (Karnataka). These pads are plant-based, biodegradable, and skin-friendly, reducing the risk of infections while also protecting the environment.
But Project AASHRITHA goes beyond pad distribution. We address one of the most unspoken struggles that girls silently suffer from—period pain, irregular periods, and lack of knowledge about their own cycle. Through interactive awareness sessions, we help girls:
â—Ź Understand menstrual health and hygiene practices
â—Ź Manage period pain through natural remedies, yoga, and lifestyle changes instead of over-relying on painkillers
â—Ź Gain awareness about irregular cycles, PCOD, and PCOS
â—Ź Learn how to use their menstrual cycle as a source of strength and power, rather than shame
By empowering underprivileged girls with knowledge, safe menstrual products, and confidence, Project AASHRITHA is reducing school absenteeism, improving reproductive health outcomes, and helping young women embrace their periods with dignity and pride.
