2012 ANNUAL

FINANCIAL & IMPACT REPORT

2012 Impact. Period. From Atlanta to Andhra Pradesh, thank you for partnering with 50 Cents. Period. Because of you, the past year was filled with tremendous growth for our organization both at home and abroad. Through your generosity, we were able to partner with new schools in India and Nepal, to conduct field studies and implement a pilot program in Nicaragua, and to develop our Period at Home program to include The Women’s Circle, a day-long reproductive and preventative health workshop for newly arrived refugee women. In total, your partnership provided reproductive health education to 400 girls in rural India, allowed 1600 people to have access to clean drinking water, gave 772 women and girls sanitary products, and educated 71 refugee women on basic reproductive health and linkages to care. Two of our water projects came in under budget, allowing our field partners to use the overage of unrestricted funds to provide school bags and supplies for 300 children in scheduled tribes districts of Andhra Pradesh, India, and to provide 20 bicycles to rural girls walking more than ten kilometers each way to school. Thank you for changing lives in 2012. In the coming year, we remain steadfast in our commitment to empower every woman and girl to experience her period with dignity and stay fully engaged in her daily life. Will you join us?
