UNFPA Dignity Kits cost only $15 to create but the contents of each kit are priceless to the recipients in crisis regions like Gaza, where basic necessities including feminine hygiene products are scarce or totally out of reach.
“May God bless you, because this is the first time I have received such a package since the day we were displaced,” said one recipient of a UNFPA Dignity Kit in Rafah.
“All the items in the bag are not available in the first place, and even if they are, their prices are very expensive,” another told us.
“All the items in the bag are crucial, and we truly need them,” added a third.
Periods do not stop during emergencies, like the humanitarian crisis these women and girls are navigating in Gaza.
UNFPA delivers care in the form of Dignity Kits so that women and girls can manage their periods with dignity in even the most dangerous, isolated regions of the world.
UNFPA Dignity Kits include menstrual pads, underwear, soap, laundry detergent, and other menstrual hygiene supplies that are essential, but inaccessible to many women and girls right now.
We have already distributed thousands of Dignity Kits in Gaza, but more women and girls are counting on your support today. Deliver the gift of dignity today to women and girls in desperate need by sponsoring Dignity Kits today:
We condemn the violence in Gaza, the West Bank, and Israel, and echo the UN Secretary-General’s call for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas. The suffering must end and peace must prevail.
Thank you for being there for women and girls.
