Periods Deserve Dignity. Every Girl Deserves Access
Support Girls With Sanitary Pads
Let's Ensure Access with Dignity
PAD-ATM by Glad Bharat Foundation ensures that menstrual products and education reach every woman and girl — with dignity, awareness, and care.
Breaking Silence. Building Confidence.
Across India, millions of girls still miss school during their periods due to lack of access, awareness, and stigma.
PAD-ATM bridges this gap by combining menstrual hygiene access with education — empowering girls to stay in school and take charge of their health.
PAD-ATM goes beyond providing pads — it sparks dialogue. Through Charcha (period education session) nukkad nataks (street plays), awareness drives, and school discussions, we aim to break deep-rooted taboos and create an environment where menstruation is spoken of with respect and normalcy.
Because menstrual health isn’t a privilege — it’s a right.
