Pinkishe Foundation
May 8, 2024
Pinkish Foundation NGO's National President Arun Gupta and National Secretary Shalini Gupta, with the cooperation of Collector Shri Dharmesh Kumar Sahu and IAS Shri Vasu Jain SDM Sarangarh, distributed sanitary pads free of cost to brides at the Chief Minister's Mass Marriage event held in Sarangarh. During this, Shalini Gupta provided information to the brides about the effects of menstruation on women's health. Along with this, awareness about women's health was also raised. The initiative of Pinkish Foundation NGO has strengthened the effort to improve menstrual health and end the stigma associated with menstruation across India.
A special aspect in Sarangarh was that grooms pledged to continue supporting the health needs related to menstruation of their brides. This promise goes beyond a mere gesture; it is a commitment within marriage towards empathy, partnership, and shared responsibilities. This initiative is not just a celebration but a powerful step towards social progress and women's empowerment. It challenges norms, promotes necessary suggestions, and paves the way for acknowledging and addressing the fundamental needs of women.
Shalini Gupta said that we celebrate this historic day, we are reminded that every small step in the direction of understanding and support can make significant progress in equality and empowerment. There is a future where every woman's health and dignity will be prioritized, leading to real empowerment for all. She also mentioned that not just Pinkishe Foundation but PM Shri Narendra Modi, Ministry of Women and Child Development led by Smriti Irani, Arundhati Murli Dharan (MHA) of Sachchi Saheli, and many more are actively working across the country so that women of India can live a life with dignity and care.
