ISCI Foundation is working on the issues related to Health, Education &amp; Environment. Health: Most girls from rural &amp; Semi Urban areas lack knowledge related to their health like Menstrual Hygiene, Anaemia, etc. Which later leads to bigger health problems if not diagnosed on time. Education: Almost all the Middle Schools in rural &amp; semi-urban areas do not have quality educational resources such as labs, smart classes, etc. To cater to this problem ISCI Foundation is setting up STEM Lab in the middle schools.Environment: Deforestation &amp; Soil Erosion is a very big problem almost everywhere. To cater to this ISCI Foundation is running activities related to sustainable environmental initiatives. 
 ISCI Foundation is running sustainable health, educational &amp; environmental programs to cater to these issues. We have set up 10 Sanitary Napkin Vending Machines in different girl's schools and provided Menstrual Hygiene Awareness programs with the help of Renowned Doctors. We have also distributed reusable sanitary napkins to marginalized girls. ISCI Foundation has prepared 100000 Seed Balls and is dispersing them in the predefined forest areas. We have started setting up STEM Labs in middle schools.

Education

<blockquote>"Too often we give children Answers to Remember rather than Problems to Solve"</blockquote>Rural India is still struggling with access to quality infrastructure. In this information age, learning outcomes depend on access to information. However, there is a wide gap between rural and urban India's availability, access, and utilization of information.Compared to students living in cities, children in rural areas are often deprived of resources and infrastructure and lack access to a support system that can nurture their intellectual development. The STEM learning lab addresses all these issues.Due to the unavailability of resources, the children get discouraged from pursuing studies in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), which help them develop a logical and analytical mind. Due to the theoretical only approach to education, the children get bored, and due to this children either lose interest in studying the subjects or there is a shallow admission rate in schools, and the dropout rate is comparatively higher.We request you to support our STEM Learning Lab initiative to help these children get a quality education. 
 With the aim of bridging this gap, we have promoted the setting up of STEM learning labs in villages and government middle schools. STEM Learning labs are all about creating a conducive environment for children to come together and access a lot of educational resources.We have learned from our past experiences with STEM Learning Programs that children love creativity and innovative way of learning concepts and it also positively impact the learning outcomes and increases attendance in the schools.The main objective of the STEM learning lab is to improve learning outcomes. When we refer to learning outcomes, it implies a change in the learning behavior of children by creating a space that is designed in a way that it can engage many people at a time - education fellows (teachers), students, parents, and volunteers.Our STEM education project is designed with the goal of building ‘thinking skills’ that equip children with the ability to learn and adapt quickly. Its objective is to build curiosity, creativity, and imagination in young minds and develop skills like Design Mind Set, Computational Thinking, Adaptive Learning, Physical Computing, etc.<img src="https://cfstatic.give.do/226ef874-56fe-4b69-bee1-e96dd3ff30fc.webp" style="display:inline;float:right;margin:0px 0px 1em 1em" width="303" />STEM Learning Lab contains Science and Math models. As the models are plug &amp; play, students can understand the concepts by observing and experimenting with them, thus igniting curiosity and resulting in engagement. The models are mapped with the syllabus of the state, CBSE, ICSE, and all state boards.

Healthcare

Poor women, especially in rural and semi-urban areas, struggle to get a clean piece of cloth to manage their period every month. There is a lack of awareness about menstrual health and hygiene. Living in a culture of shame and silence, they end up using poor substitutes like rags and ash, or worse they use NOTHING.This aggravates their day-to-day misery around this basic need.  
 ISCI Foundation, through its menstrual health &amp; hygiene awareness program, is installing Sanitary Napkin Vending Machines in the girl schools around Gwalior. We have undertaken a lot of menstrual awareness camps in backward areas with the best gynecologists to promote menstrual health and have provided free sanitary pads to women and girls.We provide high-quality, properly sanitized sanitary pads to the girls from these schools and to women and girls of the backward areas. When you donate to this program, you help women and girls in underprivileged communities get access to sanitary pads to manage their periods. 
 Rani is not afraid of her period anymore**When Rani got her period, no one including her mother spoke to her about it. She didn't know how to manage her bleeding.** Through a friend, she learned that she had to use a cloth to absorb the blood. Not knowing how to get a cloth, she ended up using pillow covers and bed sheets. This angered her mother and she got beaten up for wasting money.She came to know of sanitary pads through a classmate. When she asked her for a few, she was snubbed saying they were expensive and could not be given away for free.Rani started falling sick with the fear of getting her period. With no access to sanitary products, she resorted to praying to God to stop her periods forever. Her period, which is a normal bodily function, became an unbearable trauma for Rani.It was during this time that ISCI Foundation came in with the 'Menstrual Hygiene Program' initiative for her school. She got her 'Free Sanitary Pad' kit which came with sanitary pads and a menstrual hygiene awareness brochure. This kit changed her life and gave her the freedom to live like a normal adolescent child. She doesn't dread her period anymore and knows how to manage it.Women in India's rural areas are struggling with the basic needs of life. A sanitary napkin is the last thing on the minds of most.This simple piece of cloth saves many women from incidents of helplessness and indignity. It is a solution that is practical, and easy to use.Your monthly donation will help more girls and women like Rani get access to Free Sanitary Pad kits. Give now and help women grow out of the culture of shame.

The Critical Need: Ensuring Women and Children's Right to Quality HealthcareWomen and children are among the most vulnerable populations when it comes to accessing quality healthcare. Unfortunately, numerous barriers prevent them from receiving the care they desperately need, particularly in addressing prevalent issues like anemia, menstrual hygiene, and eye health.Anemia poses a significant health risk for women and children, leading to fatigue, weakened immunity, and impaired cognitive development. Lack of awareness, limited access to iron-rich foods, and inadequate healthcare services contribute to the persistence of this condition. By supporting access to quality healthcare, we can ensure timely diagnosis, proper treatment, and ongoing support to combat anemia and promote optimal health for women and children.Menstrual hygiene management is another critical area where women and girls face challenges. Inadequate sanitation facilities, cultural taboos, and limited access to menstrual products often force them to compromise their health and dignity. By providing education, sanitary products, and improved facilities, we can empower women and girls to manage their menstrual health with confidence, minimizing the risk of infections and enhancing their overall well-being.Eye health is equally vital, yet often overlooked. Impaired vision affects a child's learning ability and a woman's productivity and independence. Limited access to eye check-ups, refractive services, and affordable eyewear further exacerbate the issue. By facilitating comprehensive eye check-ups and providing necessary interventions, we can ensure early detection and treatment, empowering women and children to thrive and reach their full potential.By supporting women and children in accessing quality healthcare today, we can break the barriers that restrict their health and well-being. Together, we can address issues like anemia, menstrual hygiene, and eye health, ensuring that every woman and child receives the care they need and deserves. Let us unite in our commitment to creating a healthier future for all. 
 "Our Resolute Action: Empowering Women and Girls through Holistic Healthcare Interventions"To combat the pressing issues faced by women and girls, we have implemented a comprehensive set of actions that target menstrual hygiene, anemia, and eye health. Our initiatives are designed to create lasting impact and empower these individuals with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to overcome these challenges. Some of the key actions we have taken include:1. Installation of Sanitary Napkin Vending Machines: In collaboration with schools and colleges in rural and semi-urban areas, we have installed sanitary napkin vending machines. These machines provide convenient and discreet access to affordable sanitary pads, ensuring that girls and women no longer have to face period poverty. By addressing the financial barriers associated with menstrual hygiene, we aim to enable uninterrupted access to essential menstrual products.2. Provision of Disposable and Reusable Sanitary Pads: In addition to vending machines, we provide both disposable and reusable sanitary pads to girls and women. This approach promotes sustainable menstrual hygiene practices while offering choices that suit individual preferences and needs. Through these provisions, we strive to eliminate the stigma and challenges surrounding menstrual health, empowering women and girls to manage their periods with confidence and dignity.3. Awareness Sessions on Menstrual Hygiene: We conduct informative and interactive awareness sessions led by healthcare professionals and doctors. These sessions educate girls and women about menstrual hygiene, dispel myths, and provide guidance on proper menstrual health practices. By fostering knowledge and open discussions, we aim to break the silence surrounding menstruation and promote healthy habits.4. Hemoglobin and Eye Checkup Camps: Our efforts extend to organizing regular hemoglobin and eye checkup camps in underserved communities. These camps facilitate early detection of anemia and eye ailments, enabling prompt intervention and treatment. We collaborate with healthcare providers to conduct thorough examinations, ensuring that no individual's health concerns go unnoticed.5. Follow-up Care and Treatment: Upon diagnosis, we diligently follow up with the girls and women identified with anemia or eye health issues. Our dedicated team of doctors and healthcare professionals provides proper treatment, guidance, and support throughout their journey towards improved health. We prioritize continuity of care to ensure that each individual receives the necessary interventions and is equipped with the tools to manage their health effectively.By implementing these actions, we aim to bring about tangible improvements in the lives of women and girls. Through education, access to sanitary products, and comprehensive healthcare services, we strive to break the barriers that hinder their well-being. Join us in our mission as we take these crucial steps to combat these problems, making a lasting difference in the lives of countless individuals. 
 "Stories of Change: Empowering Lives through Comprehensive Healthcare Initiatives"﻿In the bustling semi-urban neighborhoods of Gwalior, a tale of transformation unfolded, painting a portrait of resilience and hope. Among the residents was young Aarti, a girl who had long struggled with the barriers imposed by limited healthcare resources and cultural taboos. But fate took a compassionate turn when our comprehensive initiatives reached her community.With the installation of a sanitary napkin vending machine in her school, Aarti's world transformed. No longer did she have to worry about missing school or compromising her dignity during her menstrual cycles. The availability of affordable sanitary pads empowered her to embrace her femininity confidently and without interruption.During a health camp held in her community, Aarti's hemoglobin levels were tested, revealing the silent burden of anemia she had carried for far too long. The dedicated team of healthcare professionals swiftly intervened, providing her with essential treatments, nutritional guidance, and iron supplements. As her strength returned, Aarti's dreams gained new vigor, and she embarked on a journey of resilience and achievement.Amidst the camp's services, an eye checkup revealed Aarti's struggles with blurred vision. With unwavering support, she was connected to specialized eye care, where her eyesight was corrected through prescription glasses. As the world came into sharp focus, Aarti's academic performance flourished, and her confidence soared to new heights.The awareness sessions conducted by doctors served as a turning point for Aarti. She was enlightened about menstrual hygiene, dispelling the myths and misconceptions that had plagued her community for generations. Empowered with knowledge, she became a catalyst for change, leading discussions on menstrual health and challenging the deep-rooted cultural norms that had restricted her peers.Aarti's story echoes the transformations that have unfolded throughout Gwalior's semi-urban areas. By distributing sanitary pads and promoting sustainable menstrual hygiene practices, we have empowered countless girls like Aarti to embrace their womanhood confidently, unburdened by the shackles of societal stigma.Together, we are reshaping the narrative of healthcare in semi-urban Gwalior, creating a landscape where every young girl's potential can thrive. Through our collective efforts, we are breaking barriers, fostering empowerment, and illuminating paths toward a future where access to quality healthcare is a birthright, not a distant dream.

Your support today can provide Women and Children with the gift of quality healthcare!"
