Rotary 3131 - Project Details

01-11-2021 - 30-06-2022

The campaign encourages households to dispose of sanitary wastes - sanitary napkins, baby diapers and adult diapers - in paper bags on which there is a big red dot. This helps the garbage collectors and segregators identify such wastes and handle them without soiling themselves. Sanitary waste amounts to three percent of every household waste and this waste can take up to 500 years to decompose in nature. The Red Dot campaign highlights the risks faced by waste pickers during segregation of waste which exposes them to unwrapped used sanitary napkins which emit harmful and hazardous chemicals. our Club met make paper bags and distribute to medical stores to be given to ladies buying sanitary pads Shilpa, Dipali, Smeeta, Aparna, Gauri, Devika participated
