Love Stories and Yoni team up to support girls and women in Uganda with the AFRIpads Foundation

In support of Menstrual May and Menstrual Hygiene Day coming up on May 28th, Love Stories Intimates, a leading premium lingerie brand, has joined forces with Yoni, the innovative fem care brand, to create period-proof underwear raising funds to support the AFRIpads foundation and give back to communities in need.

The Campaign

For every pair of period proof underwear sold, the company will donate 3 AFRIpads menstrual kits containing 4 washable sanitary pads each. Which means, with the purchase of just one pair of Love Stories x Yoni period proof underwear, you will support the menstrual needs of 3 women in Uganda for an entire year.

You can also show your support by donating directly to further provide crucial menstrual health products to the women of Uganda. For €15,00 ($16.50), you will give three additional menstrual kits.

School Attendance for Girls

“From the beginning, Love Stories has been rooted in the idea of challenging societal norms for women. Together with Yoni, we can harness our power as female-led brands and use our voices to normalise periods. By raising funds with our period-proof underwear, we support communities in developing countries, increase awareness, fight period poverty and empower women to feel their best — no matter the time of the month.”

Marloes Hoedeman, Founder of Love Stories.

RESILIENT WOMEN UGANDA

These kits will be delivered and distributed to women in Uganda by our partner Resilient Women Uganda.

Poverty is a big driver of domestic violence and sexual gender-based violence since it limits girls and women from having equal access to resources and services, especially employment, education and sexual reproductive health and rights (SRHR) information. In response to this situation, the Resilient Women’s Organization was born in 2016.

Resilient Women’s Organization (RWO) in Uganda is a registered grass-root Non-Profit Organization and was started to socially and economically empower adolescent girls and young women. The organisation has 3 main goals: ending child marriage, supporting young women and teenagers through pregnancies, and eradicating gender based violence.
