The Pad Project

WiseBodies youth, ages 9 - 13, will study the environmental impact of products used for cycling, the lack of products designed for our younger cyclers, and the lack of attention paid to products for trans and gender-fluid cyclers.

In response to these topics, WiseBodies youth will design and sew environmentally friendly cloth pads for cis girls, trans boys, and gender-fluid youth who cycle.
 
Our pads will be sold in our local towns to raise money for several projects students will identify, including a long-term project led by WiseBodies educator Sima Kamaamia.

Sima’s project will include distributing pads to families in Kenyan villages while also teaching youth about cycling, pelvic health and pregnancy prevention. Eventually Sima will host a group of Kenyan youth who will learn alongside youth in the US.
