Her Best Foot Forward works with women Artisans and other women of purpose in East Africa. A US 501(c)(3), they sell beautiful, hand-beaded projects and invest 100% of net proceeds to help operate their 100% compostable sanitary pad production facility. Their sanitary pads (made by a team of women employees who do their jobs with pride!) are best in class and are provided at no cost to girls to allow them to attend school with dignity and confidence. In the developing world, a girl can miss up to 4 days of school each month, because she cannot manage her menstrual flow. Girls can quickly fall behind and lose confidence, dropping out of school completely.
