May 28th & June 4th, 2022: Sonagachi Redlight District, Kolkata, India

Kolkata is home to India’s largest prostitution district. Most sex workers are victims of abuse and sex trafficking, and their children are collateral victims. They are mostly abandoned, unloved, uneducated, and malnourished. There is an alarming need to help educate them on menstrual hygiene and provide hygiene products. It aims to aid with basic awareness and nourishment to prevent young girls from falling victim to the sex trade.
