CSR Research Foundation distributes sanitary napkins to underprivileged women

New Delhi: With each passing day, the fight against COVID-19 pandemic is becoming more and more arduous. The gravity of the situation requires serious measures to be taken by all the stakeholders of the society. In these testing times, many NGOs have come forward to extend their helping hands to ease the situation. One such NGO is CSR-RF (CSR Research Foundation), whose distinct support is worth the acclamation.

The NGO is registered pan-India under Section 8 of The Companies Act, 2013, established for knowledge dissemination and facilitating corporate sector in fulfilling their Corporate Social Responsibilities (CSR). The NGO is lately involved in the activities of women empowerment and healthcare. During these challenging times also the NGO came forward to help underprivileged sections by organising a sanitary napkin distribution camp at Narendra Nath Memorial Trust, Gujjar Chaupal, Raghubir Nagar, West Delhi-110027. During the camp, all volunteers strictly followed the rule of social distancing.

“CSR-RF is a philanthropist organisation and we have been trying to help the women of lower strata of the society, who are not capable of this by themselves. Women healthcare is often an ignored area and costs lives but this price is too high for a developing nation like ours. But the past days have been more cruel to our country with the spread of the pandemic, COVID-19 and the toll of the fatalities is rising ever since. Hygiene is the most important tool to fight the pandemic and use of sanitary napkins is necessary for women health. This is our bit to improve the situation and create awareness. Use of sanitary napkins is indispensable yet a luxury for many. We are trying to make it just as essential as food,” said CA D D Agrawal, Chairman of CSR Research Foundation.

The NGO has been organising such events in various schools and colleges in various parts of the country in the pre-lockdown period. The event was organised and attended by many keeping in mind all the social distancing measures by the volunteers of the NGO along with the Chairman. The NGO distributed around 1000 napkins to the women and yearn to inflate the numbers by organising more such events in the coming days.
