In the charity's own words
Mabel implements a multidisciplinary approach to eradicating period poverty in remote regions of Africa. We work with local communities and organisations on the ground to distribute reusable period products, empower through menstrual lessons, teach local sewing groups to make reusable pads turning them into micro-enterprises and initiate surveys to better understand and support these communities.
