Who we are

Our Story:
Plastics4Pads began with a simple yet powerful idea: to fight menstrual poverty and plastic wastes through innovation. Founded by a phenomenal woman amazon, Haj. Amina Aliyu Abubakar, P4P has grown into a life-changing initiative that supports low-income women/girls in Africa. From the first exchange of plastic for pads, our impact has expanded across communities, empowering thousands of women and helping them regain control over their health and dignity.
