* What Does Humanism Mean to You?

For us, humanism represents the rational and compassionate advancement of society. It stands for a world free from religious, caste-based, or racial discrimination, ideological bias, and oppressive divisions.

As humanists, we advocate for equal opportunity for every human being, especially those who are marginalized. We promote rational and scientific thinking and support its practical application in daily life.

Humanism is not limited to charity alone—it strives to eliminate oppression through sustained, meaningful efforts. Our vision is a society defined by wisdom, empathy, rationality, and humanistic joy, where every person has access to meaningful work, dignity, and basic needs.

Project Objective and Rationale-

At Sikshit Bharat School, we work closely with girls from marginalized and economically disadvantaged communities. Many of these students lack access to basic menstrual hygiene products, which often results in health risks, school absenteeism, and loss of confidence.

The objective of this project is to ensure that menstruation does not become a barrier to education, dignity, or well-being. By providing sanitary pads and essential hygiene kits, we aim to support girls in managing their menstrual health safely and confidently.

Proposed Solution and Expected Impact-

This initiative proposes the distribution of sanitary pads and hygiene kits to needy girl students. Though simple, this intervention creates a strong and lasting impact by:

• Promoting safe and hygienic menstrual practices

• Reducing the risk of infections and health-related complications

• Preventing school absenteeism during menstruation

• Enhancing confidence, dignity, and emotional well-being

• Supporting gender equality and uninterrupted education

• Encouraging open awareness and reducing social stigma around menstruation

This project reflects a humanistic and practical approach—addressing an immediate need while contributing to long-term health, educational, and social outcomes for marginalized girls.
