Rotary Club Of Pune Heritage Mega Year Long Project Menstrual Hygiene Awareness and Sanitary Pad Distribution Drive We, at Rotary Club of Pune Heritage decided to work on this issue as a Year Long Project and possibly ongoing for years to come. We educate girl students in various schools about menstrual hygiene and why a woman needs sanitary napkin during these days. We also educate them about the disposal of used pads in proper way.
