"Back in the day we didn’t talk about “that time of the month” - note I couldn’t even type the P word. As a result there was such fear around the whole topic. Funniest part is I am the daughter of a Gynaecologist.

I remember watching a documentary about girls who could not go to school during “that time of the month”. It saddened me greatly. I thought coupled with the fear, plus not having the basic necessities, it was not right.
It was then that Pad Purses came into being.

I had the basic idea of what I wanted to do, but thanks to Strongest Story I was able to fine tune my story.
Taking my passion for needlecraft and incorporating my strength of creative thinking to meet the needs of young girls.
I was on my way to pinpoint my purpose and it felt so exciting! 😊

I set about sewing purses for young girls to put their pads in. The purse is wrapped up with a pack of pads, but just as important there is a Bible verse inside to remind them they are made beautifully by God.

I happily sew away, waiting for prompting as to which school, girls camp or organisation needs to be blessed - and in the process I myself feel totally blessed too!" 🙌
