Who We Are

Who We Are

Padstar International is a growing social enterprise committed to improving menstrual health outcomes for girls and women in underserved and refugee communities. We collaborate with NGOs, schools, development partners, and philanthropists to deliver sustainable solutions through the supply of reusable sanitary pads and menstrual hygiene management (MHM) education — work rooted in real community experiences, where limited access to products and information continues to impact education, health, and dignity.
