ABOUT UHURUPADS

UhuruPads are Tanzania’s only 100% biodegradable and compostable sanitary pad. Made in Arusha, Tanzania by a team of women, the pads - along with undergarments and our health and hygiene curriculum - are provided at no cost to girls attending school.

In Swahili, "Uhuru" means "Freedom." We believe every girl and every woman has the right to live in dignity and freedom. It's that simple.
