    Based on our research, we could find a need gap for the new age digital customers who still prefer offline purchases when it comes to buying fresh food products. To cater to these customers, we devised a hyperlocal fruits & vegetables delivery platform where customers can place orders for the above said items & a delivery truck will reach their location in a scheduled time slot. This truck will cater to all the orders in that building or residential establishments unlike individual delivery agents sent by existing platforms like bigbasket or grofers. We will be procuring directly from farmers in order to eliminate the middlemen & cost hikes due to their existence. This will facilitate the good old “Touch & Feel” based purchase of the fresh food items.

    Menstruation Health and management is very important for a girl's life as it impacts not only their education in formative years as well as their adult life. Menstrual hygiene materials have to be made available and accessible to all and a link must be made to look at menstruation as a Health issue and not a Sexual one. Apart from sanitary pads, toilets - with soap and water, clean sanitation and disposal methods for the pads must be provided as well. It is important to provide the girls information, education, training, and support necessary for girls to manage their menstrual periods at and away from home. Doing this helps increase a girl's confidence, sense of value, and self-worth but most importantly prevents sickness and makes this a healthy and safe process. These simple things not only help women and girls but is to the benefit of everyone in the community as an educated and healthy woman contributes significantly to her family’s health and to the welfare of the family and the society overall.
