KOMANI PROJECT

The Komani Project is a social enterprise founded by the The Umtshayelo Foundation (TUF), a Silver Award recipient of the Community Chest Impumelelo Social Innovations Award. Komani produces and distributes high quality reusable sanitary towels. Their vision is to ensure that all women, especially school learners, are supplied with menstrual protection that is sustainable and environmentally friendly. The Komani direct sales network also offers income generation opportunities to unemployed women who sell the sanitary towel kits in their communities. All sellers receive training and product orientation as part of a financial empowerment programme.
