After spending a great deal of time with the women that we call family we saw the need to teach on hygiene and self-care. We have listened to their request in what they need help with and what they want to learn. From that we made a checklist of things we now teach on. These may seem basic but when you have grown up to think that your life means little you care for it in that way. Our goal for the Women's Health and Self-Care Program is to show the women that we do not just care for them physical bodies, but we also want to care for their spiritual bodies.

The reusable pads that we teach the women how to make have been life changing! One of the things that Bloom International strives to do is empower the women to do for themselves. We teach them how to make the pads so that they can care for themselves and their own people. We provide all the material that is needed to make them. Having this available, means women have the opportunity to not only do for themselves but they are also given a chance at get an education!
