S.Sakhi pads are affordable and environmentally friendly sanitary pads made by co-operative societies set up by women coming together. There are a total of 170+ such groups across the country with 10 members each. The Vatsalya Foundation has been progressively creating its own set of standards centred on children's rights and protection, as well as nutrition, education, health, empowerment, family life, play, equality, and emergency aid. A structured rehabilitation process, as well as regular follow-up with children on the streets, day care centres, shelter homes, and youth group homes, has been implemented, and in many cases, the child has been successfully repatriated to the family and mainstreamed back into society.
