"I was looking for a platform that would allow me to get involved beyond mere monetary support and the Desai Foundation is focused on just this. I was excited to associate with the foundation’s sewing vocational programme in Valsad, Gujarat. When we visited the center, I realized that collaboration is not only providing women with financial independence but also giving them sense of purpose and adding value to their lives."

"Women will never be left behind, society and the government need to pay attention to women’s health, and to improve the health of girls and women. Sanitary napkins have to be a part of their life. It is a big thing that women themselves produce and sell sanitary napkins through the Desai Foundation's Asani program."
