'Buckets of dignity' Campaign
Menstrual Hygiene Day was Tuesday 28 May and in response, Act for Peace has launched the ‘buckets of dignity’ campaign. The aim is to raise enough money to provide 3,000 Rohingya women and girls, with dignity kits: including soap, underwear, sanitary pads, a torchlite, sandals and clothing.
