Kunika, a 12th-grade student in a government school in Lucknow, was once among the many girls facing challenges due to the lack of menstrual hygiene resources in her village. Two months ago, a menstrual hygiene management (MHM) awareness program by the Desai Foundation Trust transformed her.

Kunika became a Sangini under the Asani program, ensuring girls have access to Asani pads and maintaining hygiene standards in her school. Her dedication stems from her own past struggles, driving her to prevent other girls from facing similar hardships. Kunika finds joy in her responsibilities, grateful for the opportunity to help others through the Aasni program.
