SAFE MENSTRUAL PRODUCTS
shouldn't be a privilege of the few,
but a fundamental right for all

Millions of children and adults lack access to adequate food and water globally, on a daily basis. The lack of clothes and shoes can lead to extreme vulnerability to the harsh environments. Illnesses and infections arise, and most don’t have access to medical care.

“Period Poverty” is also on the rise. Women who have experienced lack of proper menstrual hygiene are more likely to suffer from anxiety or depression, struggle to pay their bills and have an unfulfilling love life, a study claims. A survey of 1,000 women, 500 of whom had suffered from period poverty, revealed that a lack of access to sanitary products can have a far-reaching effect on young women’s lives. Nearly two-thirds admitted they lack confidence because of bullies at school, while 39 percent now suffer from anxiety or depression.

Approximately 844 million people live without access to safe drinking water. Poor sanitation and contaminated water are also linked to the transmission of diseases such as cholera, dysentery, hepatitis A, and typhoid.

The HIDDEN HOMELESS

“Hidden homeless” – those who may be residing in inadequate settlements such as slums, squatting in structures not intended for housing, couch surfing with friends and family, and those who relocate frequently. The last time a global survey was attempted – by the United Nations in 2005 – an estimated 100 million people were homeless worldwide. As many as 1.6 billion people lacked adequate housing (Habitat, 2015).

FAQ

1. What does the Basic Needs Program support?

The Basic Needs Program focuses on providing life’s essentials to children and adults facing hardships. This includes access to nutritious food, clean drinking water, safe menstrual products, hygiene supplies, and emergency temporary shelter. By addressing these fundamental needs, the program helps restore dignity, improve health, and create stability for individuals and families living in vulnerable conditions.

2. Why is access to menstrual products a core part of this program?

Safe menstrual products are a basic human necessity, not a luxury. Many girls and women experiencing period poverty miss school, face health risks, or suffer emotional distress due to a lack of access to proper hygiene. By providing menstrual supplies, the program supports physical health, mental well-being, confidence, and girls' and women's ability to participate in daily life fully.

3. Who benefits from the Basic Needs Program?

The program serves children, women, and communities experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, and poverty in both the United States and developing communities such as Kenya. This includes unhoused individuals, children in schools, families lacking access to clean water, and those living in unsafe or unstable housing conditions.

4. How are donations used and distributed?

Donations are used directly to provide food, hygiene kits, menstrual products, clean water, and shelter based on on-the-ground needs. Promise Hill Project works with trusted local partners to ensure aid reaches the intended recipients efficiently and respectfully, whether it’s a hot meal for an unhoused individual in the U.S. or food and shelter support for children and adults in Kenya.

5. Can I choose how my donation makes an impact?

Yes. Donors can support specific giving options such as meals, hygiene kits, menstrual care supplies, or shelter support in the U.S., as well as food and facility needs for schools and struggling and impoverished communities in Kenya. Each contribution, no matter the size, plays a direct role in improving daily life for someone in need.
