Why Menstrual Hygiene Support Matters for Refugee Women
When families arrive in a new country, their first priorities are often housing, employment, transportation, language learning, and caring for children.
Essential hygiene products—including sanitary pads—can quickly become difficult to afford while families work toward financial stability.
Limited access to menstrual products may lead women to miss community programs, education opportunities, or other activities that support successful resettlement. By helping meet these everyday needs, hygiene support allows women to participate more confidently in services that strengthen their health, independence, and connection to their new communities.
Partnering with Catholic Charities of Louisville
Catholic Charities of Louisville (CCL), a service agency of the Archdiocese of Louisville, provides a wide range of support for refugee families and single mothers, including childcare assistance, education programs, family services, and community integration.
Recognizing the ongoing need for menstrual care products, GFoundation donated 96 packs of sanitary pads to support women participating in CCL’s refugee resettlement and family assistance programs.
These supplies help reduce one everyday barrier while allowing CCL staff to continue serving women with dignity and compassion.
