The Seed
The seed of Mother Nature Partnership was planted in 2010 as a simple idea to provide women with menstrual care supplies that were beneficial to them personally, and friendly to the environment. It started as a partnership between women and the environment. This idea quickly grew into the sapling of our pilot project, which launched in Cameroon in 2011. The project was a huge success. We reached 600 women with health workshops and sustainable menstrual products, and many women reported that they were “freer and happier”. We knew we had to do more. By 2014, we have expanded to include more women in our programming than ever, reaching more than 8,000 women in Cameroon. Our roots are growing deeper as we are able to branch out to more women and girls that ever before.
