Be Girl Inc. is a for-profit social enterprise with a mission to provide adolescent girls with aspirational, high-performance menstrual products to promote their health, education and empowerment in Tanzania. Be Girl has designed an innovative line of menstrual products, including Be Girl 2-in-1 underwear, Flexipads and liners, which are intended for repeated use, to provide both environmental and cost benefits over multiple cycles. The products contain a permeable pouch that enables users to insert reusable or disposable materials, such as cloth, cotton, wool or toilet paper to match each girl’s needs and available resources.
