Fighting Period Poverty in Africa Through Group Travel and Ethical Tourism
Laura wanted her Kenya group trip to leave something meaningful behind. That's when she discovered period poverty—500 million women and girls worldwide lacking access to safe, reliable period products. Girls missing school every month, their futures shrinking because of something as basic as a period. Abby Hay, founder of Nora Period Care and Soul Purpose Foundation, is changing this reality one pad at a time. Fresh from Malawi, where she met the manufacturing team producing Nora's products, Abby shares how ethical production transforms communities while delivering safe period care to those who need it most. Laura's partnering with Nora to bring reusable period kits to 260 Kenyan girls—each lasting 10 years for just $10. A decade of dignity for the price of lunch.
