No girl should have to choose between her education and her period.
We’re building schools where she doesn’t have to.
How We’re Changing Schools
TASSEL is building a scalable, school-based system that removes stigma, creates support, and ensures girls can stay in class—every day of the month.
A Complete System for Period-Friendly Schools
Education That Removes Stigma
We make menstrual health part of everyday learning—so girls can ask questions, build confidence, and learn without shame.
Safe & Supportive Schools
We help schools create an environment where girls feel supported:
A trusted teacher or adult girls can turn to
Privacy and safe spaces
A culture where periods are understood—not hidden
Access That Works
We treat pads as essential school supplies and ensure girls have what they need to stay in class comfortably.
Evidence That Drives Impact
We measure what matters—tracking changes in knowledge, confidence, participation, and attendance—to continuously refine and scale what works.
This is not a one-time program.
It’s a blueprint schools can own—and systems can scale.
2025 Impact Newsletter — From Stigma to Support
what this looks like for girls
“Now I know I can talk to my teacher and get what I need. I don’t have to miss school anymore.”
“I learned that periods are normal—and not a reason to stay home.”
“Before, I stayed home during my period. Now, I stay in school.”
