East New Britain Qld Community
The distribution this year focused on grade 9 students, resulting in the delivery of around 300 packs. We express our sincere appreciation to the teachers and students of OLSH Vunapope for their valuable feedback and warm welcome over the past three years, enabling the smooth distribution of sustainable menstrual health solutions to girls in need. We also thank the St Joseph’s and St Michael’s craft group, Maria, and her team for their unwavering dedication to this project.

Thank you talk our friends and family yesterday who assisted with the unpack and distribution of the 40ft container at Vunamami Uniting Church on the 15th July. Very much appreciated.
